Abstract

Microsurgical reconstruction has established itself as a standard procedure in breast reconstruction as it permits creation of a natural and aesthetically appealing breast mound, even after modified radical mastectomy and radiation. In the past few decades numerous new free flap donor-sites have been described that permit an individualized approach to reconstruction, thus, resulting in a high level of patient satisfaction. Paralleling these technical innovations, the focus of microsurgical breast reconstruction has shifted from mere "flap success" to "aesthetic outcome", while also taking into account the respective donor-site morbidity. Here, the authors discuss contemporary developments in the field with a particular focus on surgical techniques and technologies that contribute to increasing the safety of microsurgical breast reconstruction.
