LD Flap Reconstruction

Last reply: 07 April 2014 21:14

Hi there It's been a long time since I have been on this site....I finished my treatment Sept 2011, had mastectomy, chemo, Rad therapy = the Works !!! Unfortunately Image removed. I also had a failed Diep Flap reconstruction April 2012 and I am now looking at going back for round 2 and having an LD FLap - any advice on what the surgery is like. I am seeing Margaret O'Donnell in the Blackrock Clinic next week - anyone been to her and had similar op ?Really would appreciate some feedback on what I can expect. Thanks so much

Hi Positive girl
Just wondering how you got on at your appt to discuss the LD flap? I'm interested cos I'm scheduled for this type of recon also. I don't know if you can have LD flap only but I'm to have LD flap plus an implant.
