Medially Based “Abdominal Rotation Advancement Flap”: A Promising Technique for Mastectomy Defect Reconstruction in “High-Risk Patients” Awaiting Adjuvant Radiotherapy

Extensive postmastectomy defects and soft-tissue defects often require some additional flap cover of reconstruction after excision. The reconstruction aim in this group should be a diligent and easy closure with a quality skin cover, early recovery, and brief stay in hospital so that the patients can receive early postoperative radiotherapy/chemotherapy. Medially based abdominal transposition flap is a type C fasciocutaneous flap based on medial perforating vessels. We present our experience in significant postmastectomy defects, especially in high-risk morbid patients.
