Blood supply preserved to enable nipple survival
POST-MASTECTOMY RECONSTRUCTION
Indications
All post-mastectomy defects are candidates for breast reconstruction
Questions are:
#1 – When to perform reconstruction?
Immediate versus delayed
• Reconstructive surgery can be done at the time of the mastectomy (immediate breast reconstruction), or at
if patient wishes

FLAPS AND RADIATION
Immediate Delayed
Advantages • Saves 1 surgery • Cancer treatment will not

Disadvantages: some is lost

Loss of breast skin envelope and natural landmark
contraction
Recipient vessel dissection more tedious because of

Pros:
inferior-lateral pole coverage of the implant where the pectoralis muscle is absent
greater initial tissue expansion.
improved aesthetic outcomes.
Cons: increased postoperative infectious complications, seroma, and explantation

INDICATION
– With implant-based reconstruction
– Are not candidates for abdominal-based

– Failed prosthetic breast reconstruction
– Partial mastectomy
Both lateral and transverse branches of the
thoracodorsal artery give off numerous perforating
vessels to the overlying skin safety harvesting

LD FLAP
Review of the American College of Surgeons National Surgical Improvement Program (NSQIP), LD flaps:
Accounted for nearly 1/3 of all breast reconstruction (32.7%)
30 day complication rates were lower the pedicled TRAM and free flap
including rates of flap failure, surgical site infection, and overall complication
Cons:
Back scars
Back contour deformity
Loss of 15% of shoulder function
Problem with athletes - golfers and tennis players
TRAM FLAP
Indications:
Anybody with enough lower abdominal tissue
Significant breast ptosis
Prior radiation
Contraindications:
Not enough tissue
Previous abdominoplasty
OMENTUM FLAP
- Functional recovery
- Less chance of hernias, bulges, and weakness of abdominal wall
- Less pain
FREE TRAM FLAP
A muscle-sparing flap
Has a reliable and predictable blood supply based off the
inferior epigastric artery and vein
Zones are different
Advantages:
Less fat necrosis and flap loss
Good vessel size match to either IM artery of thoracodorsal vessels
No pedicle bulge from tunnelling
Ease of breast mound shaping and contouring
FREE TRAM FLAP
FREE TRAM
DIEA/SIEA
IM Thoracodorsal
Recipient vessel option
Pros • Easier access for microsurgery • Often exposed with the
• Good size match for vessels mastectomy/axillary node dissection
• More medial placement of the flap compared • Consistent anatomy
with using thoracodorsal vessels; less lateral
fullness
• Avoids axillary dissection – related morbidity
Cons • Vessels can be thin walled and more fragile, • May be damaged by mastectomy/axillary
especially veins node dissection
• Left IM vein tends to be smaller • Lateral placement of the flap
• Respirator changes the level of focus during • Increased axillary dissection and
microsurgery morbidity
• Future use of IM for coronary artery bypass
• Small but potential risk for pneumothorax

WHY DIEP FLAP?
Advantage
Less muscle and fascia was removed minimize compromising the anterior abdominal wall
Less donor site morbidity
Less functional deficit
Disadvantage
Long operating time
Decreased perfusion to flap with less perforator
