[Three-dimensional orthotopic tissue reconstruction with a free, prefabricated high-density porous polyethylene implant flap].
We investigated the appropriateness of the implant to be used in free-tissue transfers in a rabbit model in which a full-thickness skin graft was wrapped around a prefabricated high-density porous polyethylene implant. ⋯ Prefabrication of the high-density porous polyethylene implant under the superficial inferior epigastric artery and vein results in sufficient conditions for its use in free transfers.
