Incidence, Impact, and Management of Incidentalomas on Preoperative Computed Tomographic Angiograms for Breast Cancer Patients with and without Genetic Mutations

Abstract

bdominal computed tomography angiograms have become an integral part of preoperative evaluation for autologous breast reconstruction at many centers. The benefits of computed tomographic angiograms are well documented and include mapping the intramuscular course and fascial exit sites of vascular structures, easier flap harvest with reliable selection of dominant perforators, fewer surgical complications, decreased morbidity, and reduced operative times and surgeon stress. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10] The anatomical variability of the abdominal perforator vasculature is well known, further supporting the use of computed tomographic angiography for surgical mapping in perforator-based breast reconstruction. However, with the increased use of abdominal computed
