Stromal vascular fraction will be isolated and injected intradermally just after wound closure into one site of surgical wound (most lateral 5 cm) at the DIEP flap donor site. The other site of DIEP flap donor site (most lateral 5 cm) will serve as a control. Part of stromal vascular fraction will be analysed by flow cytometry for the viability and cell specification. Ten months after DIEP flap surgery the scars at both sites (control and injected site) will be excised and analysed histologically. At that time photographs will be taken and scars will be analysed by Patient and Observer Assesment Scale (POSAS).'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT', 'OLDER_ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '65 Years', 'minimumAge': '20 Years', 'genderBased': True, 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* breast cancer patients scheduled for primary or secondary DIEP flap breast reconstruction\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* BMI\n* age\n* immunosuppressive disease'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT04238468', 'briefTitle': 'Scar Tissue Analysis After Intraoperative Application of Stromal Vascular Fraction Cells Into Suture Line', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'University Medical Centre Ljubljana'}, 'officialTitle': 'Scar Tissue Analysis After Intraoperative Intradermal Application of Stromal Vascular Fraction Cells Into Suture Line', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': 'SSVF'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Intradermal injection of stromal vascular fraction', 'description': 'Most lateral 5 cm of abdominal donor site will be injected with stromal vascular fraction just after the wound is closed.', 'interventionNames': ['Procedure: Intradermal stromal vascular fraction injection']}, {'type': 'NO_INTERVENTION', 'label': 'control', 'description': 'Most contralateral 5 cm of abdominal donor site will serve as control.'}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Intradermal stromal vascular fraction injection', 'type': 'PROCEDURE', 'description': 'After flank liposuction, lipoaspirate will be processed by enzymatic digestion, thus stromal vascular fraction will be isolated.
