  • Title: [Breast reconstruction with the transverse abdominal island flap].
    Author: Jastrzebski J, Huber P.
    Journal: Handchir Mikrochir Plast Chir; 1986 Jan; 18(1):16-8. PubMed ID: 3949257.
    Abstract:
    A transverse abdominal island flap (TAIF) harvested from the ipsi or contra-lateral side, has been employed for breast reconstruction in five patients. The use of a silicone implant can be avoided because of the adequate bulk of skin, muscle and fat that is available. Examples of representative cases are shown.
