Re: Reconstruction
Does anyone have any experience with a latissmus flap? I'm posted for that later this month. I had expanders and implants only and failed after two infections on the radiated side. Now I have only one implant. I hate being lopsided. I was ok being flat, but would love to have 2 boobs and not have to wear a bra!
