Figure 2. Limited anterior fascial incision with robotic DIEP flap harvest; DIEP= deep inferior epigastric perforator.
Figure 3. Preoperative marking for robotic latissimus muscle flap.
Once the latissimus muscle is free, it will be easily accessible through the axillary incision [Figure 5]. After
endoscopic confirmation of hemostasis, the robot can be undocked, the axillary incision reopened, and the
latissimus muscle delivered. Drains are placed through the two lower port sites.
