  • •1. Women requiring a mastectomy and electing to undergo latissimus dorsi breast reconstruction (LDBR) following a diagnosis of invasive primary breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS)
  • •2. Technically suitable for a stage delayed autologous extended tissue-based latissimus dorsi (LD) procedure (this includes patients agreeable to a Wise or central reduction pattern reconstruction and a planned contralateral symmetrisation procedure if there is not sufficient volume to reconstruct the breast to its native size)
  • •3. Pre-operative evaluation of the breast and axilla suggest that post-operative radiotherapy (RT) is anticipated according to local RT policy
  • •4. Patient does not express a preference regarding procedure type
  • •5. The capacity to understand the patient information sheet and ability to provide written informed consent
  • •6. The capacity to understand and complete the self report HRQL and General Nordic Questionnaire for Psychological and Social Factors at Work (QPS) questionnaires
  • •7. Physical fitness as per the pre-operative evaluations (electrocardiogram [ECG], chest X-ray [CXR], blood biochemistry)
  • •8. Aged between 25 and 75 years

Exclusion Criteria

  • •1. Prophylactic or risk-reducing surgery (i.e. no malignant or pre-malignant pathology such as lobular carcinoma in situ [LCIS])
  • •2. Previous radiotherapy to the breast
  • •3. Bilateral synchronous pathology
  • •4. Loco-regional recurrence
  • •5. Previous wide local excision requiring completion mastectomy
  • •6. Pregnancy as confirmed on blood tests or ultrasound examination
  • •7. Evidence of distant metastases as diagnosed by chest X-ray, bone scan, liver ultrasound scan (USS) or computed tomography (CT) chest/abdomen and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)
  • •8. Previous malignancy except basal cell carcinoma (BCC) or squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) of the skin
  • •9. Significant other clinical risk factors and co-morbidities e.g. body mass index (BMI), diabetes, smoker according to local policy
