CHAPARRO, Enrique; OCHOA, Julio  and  GELES, José. Delayed Breast Reconstruction Vd. rev.colomb.cancerol. [online]. 2020, vol.24, n.1, pp.37-41.  Epub May 11, 2020. ISSN 0123-9015.  https://doi.org/10.35509/01239015.53.

There are clinical cases operated with the large dorsal breast reconstruction technique Vd, and a surgical procedure is shown that allows a better finish in terms of symmetry, volume and projection.

Four cases of late reconstruction are shown, of which 2 were late reconstructions themselves and the other 2 with previous reconstructions with complications (one case of previous TRAM necrosis and another with poor positioning of the prosthesis).

The use of a vacuum assisted closure system (negative pressure system), a non-invasive and dynamic system that helps promote healing at the site of the wound, which favors the reduction of the wound area, eliminating excess fluids and stimulating angiogenesis.

The 4 cases were treated at the National Cancer Institute of Colombia, the San Diego Clinic and the Villavicencio Departmental Hospital.

Keywords : Myocutaneous Flap; Mastectomy; Mammaplasty.
