Summary

This observational study examines long-term quality of life and aesthetic outcomes in women who underwent breast reconstruction using a PAP flap — a technique that uses tissue from the inner thigh. Researchers will survey participants and analyze photos to understand satisfaction, function, and donor-site effects years after surgery.
