    Author: Samson R, Pasternak BM.
    Journal: Surg Gynecol Obstet; 1979 Sep; 149(3):437-42. PubMed ID: 382412.
    Abstract:
    The greater omentum is a unique organ with multipotential properties. A simple procedure converts it into a vascularized pedicle that may be utilized throughout the body. Knowledge of the possible applications of free or pedicled omental grafts will significantly add to the armamentarium of a clinical and experimental surgeon.
