Dual-plane versus Endoscopic Latissimus Dorsi Muscle Flap Breast Reconstruction Following Endoscopic Nipple-sparing Mastectomy
The R-E-LDMF BR technique achieved comparable aesthetic results and major complication rates to the Dual-plane approach, while significantly reducing overall medical costs, despite higher minor complication rates. This approach represents a cost-effective alternative for patients seeking optimal aesthetic results with reduced financial burden.
