Incidence of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) Carrier Status in Patients Undergoing Post-Mastectomy Breast Reconstruction

Conclusions
With the auto-rim flap technique, a part of the caudal excess of the alar cartilage remains as a flap in the facet region; therefore, there is no need in the cephalic region to perform more of an excision than what is strictly necessary.
