 Initially, the breast footprint was created by raising the mastectomy flaps full thickness above the pectoralis - bilaterally.   We started on the irradiated side first.  We then identified the 3rd rib costal cartilage and the pectoralis muscle was split longitudinally to access it.  The perichondrium was scored and elevated circumferentially.  The entire costal cartilage was removed.  We then split the posterior perichondrium and elevated it off the IM vessels.  The IMA was evident beneath a thick layer of scar and was dissected free for the entire interspace.  We then proceeded to dissect out the IMV.  Dissection was carried to the cephalad rib.\\ Initially, the breast footprint was created by raising the mastectomy flaps full thickness above the pectoralis - bilaterally.   We started on the irradiated side first.  We then identified the 3rd rib costal cartilage and the pectoralis muscle was split longitudinally to access it.  The perichondrium was scored and elevated circumferentially.  The entire costal cartilage was removed.  We then split the posterior perichondrium and elevated it off the IM vessels.  The IMA was evident beneath a thick layer of scar and was dissected free for the entire interspace.  We then proceeded to dissect out the IMV.  Dissection was carried to the cephalad rib.\\

 Why dissect SIEV 6cm? because it's in the dot phrase. The primary drainage system of the abdomen is the superficial system (not the DIEV), so it's a good bailout option. It could also potentially be used as vein graft. Why dissect SIEV 6cm? because it's in the dot phrase.
