Donor site morbidity following DIEP flap for breast reconstruction in Asian patients: Is it different?

Despite the decrease in donor‐site morbidity with the advent of deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction, abdominal complications still occur. There have been few studies on donor morbidity considering the ethnic differences in the Asian population, as represented by a lower BMI with less redundant tissue and a tendency for poor scarring. In the present study, the authors investigated the incidence of abdominal complications and their risk factors following DIEP flap breast reconstruction in an Asian population.
