متن کاملHerpes Zoster in a Free Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous Flap After Delayed Breast Reconstruction
In concert with advances in surgical reconstruction techniques and improved survival after breast cancer, both the aesthetic and functional outcomes, especially sensory recovery, of breast reconstruction have been addressed. Most studies on sensory recovery in reconstructed breasts have utilized patients' subjective responses to touch, pain, temperature, and pressure. In contrast, this report d...
