ABSTRACT

Objective To study the operational method and the clinical application of breast reconstruction with the bipedical transverse rectus abdominis. Methods 5 cases of breast reconstruction were performed with bipedical transverse rectus abdominis post mastectomy, and 3 cases of nipple-areola reconstruction. Immediate reconstruction was 3 cases, and delayed reconstruction was 2 cases. Results 4 cases of the breast reconstruction were survival, the morphologies were natural, and touch feeling was normal. Only one case skin flap was partial necrosis, nearly 3cm?2cm. Conclutions The breast reconstruction with bipedical transverse rectus abdominis is a good choice for breast cancer patients with caesarotomy scar.
