The double flag flap technique for nipple reconstruction is effective, with 74% patient satisfaction and good long-term projection. Breast skin quality significantly impacts nipple reconstruction outcomes.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery
  • Oncology

Context:

  • Nipple reconstruction is a crucial component of breast reconstruction after mastectomy.
  • The
  • double flag
  • local flap technique has been utilized since 2004.
  • Long-term outcomes and influencing factors require thorough assessment.

Purpose:

  • To retrospectively evaluate the long-term results of the
  • double flag

  • flap were analyzed.
  • Patient satisfaction was 74%, and clinician satisfaction was 66%.
  • Average nipple diameter was 12.6mm, height 4.9mm, and projection ratio 0.8; a 0.7 ratio was the satisfaction threshold. Complete necrosis occurred in 4%.

    • Impact:

    • The
    • double flag
    • flap demonstrates encouraging long-term results for nipple reconstruction.
    • Tegument quality of the reconstructed breast is a significant determinant of nipple reconstruction success.
    • Findings provide valuable data for optimizing nipple reconstruction techniques.
