Omental free-tissue transfer: indications and results from personal experience.

Abstract:

:Between 1987-2002, omental free-tissue transfer was used in 11 patients, aged 6-65 years (mean age, 37.6). The omentum was used for the treatment of brachial plexus injury pain (3 cases), Romberg's disease (1 case), defects of the extremities occurring with chronic obstructive arterial disease (2 cases), posttraumatic lesions (3 cases), and following oncological resections (2 cases). In 2 cases, omental tissue represented the secondary option, after the failure of muscular tissue transfer. In 2 patients, the omental tissue transfer helped to preserve the knee. There was 1 failure, followed by amputation of the thigh. Two patients died from their underlying disease 10 and 36 months, respectively, after the operation.
