Impact of Chemotherapy and Radiation on Breast Sensation After Immediate Reconstruction.
[PURPOSE] This study explores the impact of chemotherapy and radiation therapy (XRT) on breast sensation in patients undergoing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction. [METHODS] This prospective study, conducted from 2019 to 2024, focuse…

Sensation in Neurotized Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction With Different Donor Nerves: Comparing T11 and T12.
[BACKGROUND] The deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap can be reliably neurotized for autologous breast reconstruction. In standard fashion, a sensory branch of intercostal nerve T11 or T12 of the DIEP flap is coapted to the anter…

Comparing Primary Coaptation and Allograft in Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction: Long-Term Sensory and BREAST-Q Outcomes.
[BACKGROUND] Loss of breast sensation after mastectomy and breast reconstruction is associated with decreased psychosocial outcomes and quality-of-life, spurring applications of peripheral nerve repair to autologous breast reconstruction. W…

Sensation Alterations Following Superior and Superomedial Wise Pattern Breast Reductions.
[INTRODUCTION] Breast reduction has the potential to alter sensation of the breast and nipple-areolar complex (NAC) due to intraoperative sensory nerve disruption. There is currently a paucity of available literature pertaining to sensation…

A Machine Learning Approach to Predicting Donor Site Complications Following DIEP Flap Harvest.
[BACKGROUND] The additional donor site incisions in autologous breast reconstruction can predispose to abdominal complications. The purpose of this study is to delineate predictors of donor site morbidity following deep inferior epigastric…

A Comparative Analysis of Sensory Return in Delayed-Immediate Versus Immediate Neurotized Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flap Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Breast reconstruction patients who anticipate adjuvant radiation are not suitable candidates for immediate deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap reconstruction due to the risk of flap fibrosis, shrinkage, and fat necr…

A Comparative Analysis of Risk Factors for Breast Skin Necrosis following Autologous versus Device-Based Breast Reconstruction.
[BACKGROUND] Mastectomy skin flap necrosis often necessitates prolonged wound care, surgical re-excision, and it increases the risk for infection. This study aims to compare rates of skin flap necrosis between autologous and device-based r…

A Pilot Study Comparing Sensation in Buried Versus Nonburied Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator Flaps.
[BACKGROUND] Neurotized deep inferior epigastic perforator (DIEP) flaps have been shown to improve sensory recovery after mastectomy and reconstruction. With the recent trend toward nipple-sparing mastectomies, sensation likely originates w…
