Brief Summary:
For patients refusing implants for breast reconstruction after cancer surgery, autologous tissue flap reconstruction using the latissimus dorsi muscle is an alternative. Conventional surgery leaves a long incision on the back, affecting aesthetics and quality of life. Minimal access techniques result in a smaller, more concealable scar. While previous studies suggest its safety and effectiveness, most are retrospective. To further validate patient satisfaction and short-term outcomes, a prospective, randomized controlled trial comparing minimal access with conventional surgery is planned. The primary endpoint is Breast Q-satisfaction with back score at 6 months. Secondary outcomes include other Breast Q subscales, surgical metrics, and complications. The study aims to enroll 94 patients in total, providing evidence for surgical decision-making in breast cancer reconstruction.
