DOI: 10.1093/bjs/znad101.080
Abstract: The Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap is considered the gold standard procedure for breast reconstruction. The long-term cosmetic outcomes of the reconstructed breast are unmatched by alternative reconstructive methods, however the donor site morbidity,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/sap.0000000000003095
Abstract: Introduction Although neurotization has the potential to improve sensory outcomes after autologous breast reconstruction, this technique remains controversial. There is debate regarding the clinical outcomes and the recipient nerve of choice. This histoanatomical study aims… read more here.
