Secondary shaping of the free TRAM: an inferior pedicle reduction mammaplasty / Farace, Francesco; Rubino, Corrado; Posadinu, A.; Pittalis, E; Campus, Gian Vittorio. - In: JOURNAL OF PLASTIC, RECONSTRUCTIVE & AESTHETIC SURGERY. - ISSN 1748-6815. - 61:(2008), pp. 204-206.
Abstract:
Secondary shaping of the transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous (TRAM) flap is
a routine treatment, and includes liposuction, skin excision, inframammary fold replacement,
dermal fat grafts or lipofilling. Major flap revision may include an augmentation procedure with
implants or expanders. We present an inferior pedicle breast reduction in a woman who underwent
breast reconstruction using a free TRAM flap. To our knowledge, there are no reports
about reduction mammaplasty or mastopexy in Free TRAM flap breast reconstruction. Reduction
mammaplasty should be regarded as a valuable option in free TRAM or deep inferior epigastric
perforator secondary reshaping.
