Abstract

We demonstrate no significant difference in donor site morbidity between unipedicled and bipedicled DIEP flaps. Bipedicled DIEP flaps do have slightly higher rates of donor site morbidity, which can be partly explained by longer operative times. There is no significant difference in recipient site complications, and bipedicled DIEP flaps can reduce rates of further elective surgery.
