Abstract: Delayed-Immediate vs. Immediate Free Autologous Breast Reconstruction: A Comparison of Outcomes
نویسندگان
چکیده
INTRODUCTION: Autologous breast reconstruction is the preferred technique for those patients who require radiation therapy as part of their treatment plan. In order to avoid the detrimental effects of radiation, these patients may benefit from immediate placement of a tissue expander at the time of mastectomy followed by a second stage conversion to autologous tissue (delayed-immediate reconstruction). In this study, we compared the complication profiles of delayed-immediate breast reconstruction (D-IBR) with immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) for those patients undergoing free tissue transfer.
