Interventions

  • Single-Port Robotic System — DEVICE
    Utilizing the Single-Port robotic system for DIEP flap harvest has been previously described, but only in a small pilot study. The investigators plan to demonstrate the feasibility and safety of this approach on a larger cohort of patients.

Study Details

The primary aim of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of single-port robotic surgery for DIEP flap breast reconstruction. The investigators will also investigate complications of the procedure, incision length, flap success rate, post operative pain, vascular pedicle length and caliber, and VMP-B score (quality of life/satisfaction of breast procedures survey).
