Abstract
Bilateral free flap breast reconstructions are commonly performed. The standard way of performing this type of reconstruction is by anastomosing each flap to the respective internal mammary (IM) vessels as a first choice recipient. Thus two sets of recipients are necessary. In selected cases only one set of recipient vessels can be used. The purpose of this chapter is to present the surgical tips and possible pitfalls for bilateral free flap breast reconstruction using a single set of recipient artery and vein.
