摘要
A two-stage procedure using bilateral free DIEP flaps to correct excessive bilateral breast reduction is described. The reconstructive challenge was to achieve satisfactory breast projection on a large torso without recourse to prosthetic implants or extensive back scars. The literature on the use of TRAM and latissimus dorsi flaps in subtotal breast reconstruction for various other breast deformities is reviewed. We have not found a similar case to ours in the literature. (C) 2003 The British Association of Plastic Surgeons. Published by Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
