3-DIEPrinting: 3D-printed Models to Assist the Intramuscular Dissection in Abdominally Based Microsurgical Breast Reconstruction

Summary:. Harvest of the deep inferior epigastric vessels for microsurgical breast reconstruction can be complicated by an intricate and lengthy subfascial dissection. Although multiple preoperative imaging modalities exist to help visualize the vascular anatomy and assist in perforator selection, f...
