Blood Flow Change After Free Flap Surgery in Diabetic Patients

Completed
Conditions
Diabetes
Registration Number
NCT03027219
Lead Sponsor
Asan Medical Center
Brief Summary

We aim to evaluate the flow change of arterial anastomosis site during free flap surgery in diabetic patients.

Detailed Description

Objective: flow change of arterial anastomosis site during free flap surgery in diabetic patients.

Background: No research was published about flow change of arterial anastomosis site of the free flap during surgery.

Plan: Using Duplex sonography, various parameters related flap perfusion will be evaluated before and after the administration of alprostadil.
