A Comparison of Patient Reported Outcome Measures in Patients who received both DIEP Flap and PAP Flap Breast Reconstructions

Breast reconstruction should be routinely offered to patients undergoing mastectomy surgery for breast cancer.1 Post-operative recovery-time, the patient's occupation, hobbies and lifestyle must be considered when determining the most appropriate reconstruction technique for individual patients. Generally, patients prefer autologous breast reconstruction over implant-based methods for cosmetic and psychological reasons.2 The Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator (DIEP) flap is considered the gold-standard technique in free-flap autologous breast reconstruction however the Profunda Artery Perforator (PAP) flap is increasing in popularity amongst selected patients.
