Pedicle omental flap transfer combined with vascular reconstruction after wide resection of a myxoid liposarcoma in the inguinal region.

摘要

We describe a case with an inguinal myxoid liposarcoma that showed a favorable postoperative course after wide resection followed by arterial reconstruction and pedicle omental flap transfer for a wide defect including the femoral artery and vein. To our knowledge, this is the first report of the vascular reconstruction combined with pedicle omental flap transfer. In the long postoperative follow-up of 6 years, the course has been both oncologically and functionally favorable. Therefore, this reconstruction technique can be considered as a good treatment option.
