Abstract

Introduction: Oncoplastic techniques are increasingly incorporated in the treatment of breast cancer, and with them their long-term follow-up implications. We present a case of revision mastopexy in a patient who previously underwent symmetrisation mastopexy following primary breast cancer treatment. The old case notes were not available and although clinical examination elucidated a wise pattern scar, the primary pedicle utilised for the procedure was uncertain. While neovascularisation occurs in the postoperative period, the primary pedicle should be respected during subsequent surgery.
