Özet

Background: Although, because of the disruption of perforators, abdominoplasty has been suggested as a major contraindication for patients undergoing autologous breast reconstruction with the transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TIZAM) flap, many researchers encourage the search for a means of improving the surd vival of the skin paddle of the flap in patients who have undergone previous abdominoplasty. In this study),, the effect of the surgical delay phenomenon on the survival of the TRAM flap Following abdominoplasty was investigated.
