Abstract

Breast reconstructive surgery, a pivotal aspect of breast cancer management, has witnessed considerable advancements over the years. Flaps, in particular, have become an indispensable tool in this field.

The discussion delves into emerging techniques and sheds light on the future of this critical aspect of surgical practice.
