Minimal Access Versus Conventional Latissimus Dorsi Flap Harvest for Breast Reconstruction

Официальное название

A Randomized Controlled Study of Minimal Access Latissimus Dorsi Flap Harvest for Breast Reconstruction Versus Conventional Approaches in the Treatment of Early Breast Cancer

Обзор

For patients refusing implants for breast reconstruction after cancer surgery, autologous tissue flap reconstruction using the latissimus dorsi muscle is an alternative. Conventional surgery leaves a long incision on the back, affecting aesthetics and quality of life. Minimal access techniques result in a smaller, more concealable scar. While previous studies suggest its safety and effectiveness, most are retrospective. To further validate patient satisfaction and short-term outcomes, a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing minimal access with conventional surgery is planned. The primary endpoint is Breast Q-satisfaction with back score at 6 months. Secondary outcomes include other Breast Q subscales, surgical metrics, and complications. The study aims to enroll 94 patients in total, providing evidence for surgical decision-making in breast cancer reconstruction.
