The pedicled omentoplasty: technical aspects in reconstructive and protective surgery

A N Van Geel et al. Neth J Surg. 1991 Oct.

Abstract

A pedicled omentoplasty is a simple and safe method to reconstruct soft-tissue defects. A pedicled omentoplasty can also be used as an adjuvant surgical procedure in preventing anastomotic leakage and radiation damage. The way a pedicled omentoplasty should be performed is described in detail with special attention to transposing techniques.
