Abstract
This case illustrates an unusual mastectomy patient in whom the standard alternatives for breast reconstruction were not available. A deep inferior epigastric transverse abdominal free flap was successfully employed. The abundance of tissue provided by this technique enabled reconstruction of a large breast to match the contralateral side.Keywords
