Introduction: We present a new technique, the bilobed lateral artery perforator-based flap, for breast-conserving surgery of large central tumors or nearby, combining Zymany's bilobed flap and a Lateral Intercostal Perforator (LICAP) flap, and its 10-year outcomes.
Materials And Methods: We studied 37 patients with malignant breast tumors near or involving the central skin, without ptosis or desire to correct it, who avoided mastectomy with this modified bilobed flap from 2013 to 2022. The same surgeon operated on them in different institutions.
