The authors present a group of nine patients after mastectomy. Breast reconstruction was performed by transposition (3) or by free transplantation (6) of a TRAM flap. Based on a review of literary reports, and on their own experience, the authors consider this procedure to be a reliable and effective method of breast reconstruction.
