Abstract

BAZUALDO FIORINI., Enzo; LIZARZABURU PENAFIEL, Lenin Steve; CEVALLOS PAREDES, Lizzeth Elizabeth  and  PADILLA GRANDES, Alejandro Sebastian. Comparison between traditional and new minimally invasive techniques for breast reconstruction: A systematic review. Revista InveCom [online]. 2025, vol.5, n.2, e502077.  Epub Mar 17, 2025. ISSN 2739-0063.  https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.13870762.

The aim of this article is to compare traditional techniques with new techniques in minimally invasive breast reconstruction, highlighting their advantages and disadvantages. A systematic review was performed using the PRISMA method to ensure a comprehensive and systematic compilation of the relevant literature. The review included scientific articles, clinical studies and systematic reviews published in the last 15 years, obtained from databases such as PubMed, Scopus and Scielo. Traditional techniques, such as the TRAM (Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous) flap and the DIEP (Deep Inferior Epigastric Perforator) flap, have been widely used and present good results in terms of esthetics and functionality. However, these techniques are invasive, involve long recovery times and significant risks of postoperative complications. On the other hand, new technologies, such as robotic surgery and the use of acellular dermal matrices, have emerged as promising alternatives. These minimally invasive techniques offer benefits such as shorter recovery time, reduced scarring and lower complication rates. Robotic surgery allows for greater precision and control during the procedure, while acellular dermal matrices facilitate tissue integration and enhance aesthetic outcomes. The findings of this review indicate that although traditional techniques remain a viable option, new technologies are revolutionizing the field of minimally invasive breast reconstruction, providing better achievements and greater patient satisfaction.
