Secondary Revision after Breast Reconstruction with Free Abdominal Perforator Flap: Flap Liposuction and Inframammary Fold Reconstruction
The IBP was increased due to the decrease in flap volume. Revisions were completed with no difference in the LS-only IBP, especially when the LS amount was less than 375 mL. If the removal of 375 mL or more is necessary, removal or reformation of the IMF can be considered. These findings can potentially guide the planning of surgical procedures.
