We present a one-staged local cutaneous-fat flap for nipple reconstruction. It has proven reliable in producing a geometrically correct nipple without complication. It represents a modification of existing cutaneous or dermal-fat flaps with theoretical and apparent benefits inherent in its design.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
