I had a bilateral mastectomy due to DCIS this year. I am looking for advice from women that have had the tram flap surgery performed in the Seattle area, specifically at Virginia Mason Hospital. Any advice would be much appreciated!!

    Your question is very specific and I noticed you haven't been getting a reply. You might consider asking your local breast coalition or breast cancer support groups for some first person advice. If you are looking for general information on tram flap surgery, the Susan Love website has some survivor stories complete with pictures on various reconstruction alternative. Good luck!
