IntroductionSalvage breast reconstruction with autologous tissue is becoming more prevalent due to a resurgence in implant-based procedures. The latter has caused a commensurate rise in failed or treatment-resistant prosthetic cases requiring conversion to free tissue transfers. Salvage reconstruction is often considered more challenging, owing to patient presentation, prior treatments and intraoperative difficulties. The aim of the study was to test this hypothesis by comparing outcomes of salvage versus non-salvage autologous microsurgical breast reconstructions in a retrospective matched cohort study.MethodsThe demographics, risk factors, operative details and outcomes of patients who underwent free flap salvage of implant-based reconstructions by a single operator (2005–2019) were retrospectively evaluated. For each salvage reconstruction, the consecutive non-salvage abdominal free flap reconstruction was selected for comparison. The clinical outcomes including intraoperative blood loss, operative time, flap survival and complication rates were compared.ResultsOf 442 microsurgical patients, 35 (8.0%) had salvage reconstruction comprising 41 flap transfers (29 unilateral, 6 bilateral) and 42 flaps (28 unilateral, 7 bilateral) in nonsalvage reconstruction. Deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flaps comprised the commonest autologous tissue used in both groups at 74% and 71% respectively. Most patients (83%) underwent salvage reconstruction for severe capsular contractures. There was a significant difference in radiation exposure between groups (salvage reconstruction 89%, non-salvage reconstruction 26%; p0.05).ConclusionThis 15-year study shows that despite salvage autologous free flap breast reconstruction requiring longer operation times, its intra and postoperative outcomes are generally comparable to non-salvage cases. Therefore, salvage breast reconstruction with free flaps provides a reliable option for failed or suboptimal implant-based reconstructions.

HER2 expression in breast cancer is evaluated to select patients for anti-HER2 therapy. With the advent of newly approved HER2-targeted drugs for low HER2 expression breast cancer, more solid evidence on the whole spectrum of HER2 expression is needed. In this study, we quantitatively assessed HER2 expression from the whole core by combining high-intensity phosphor-integrated dot (PID) immunostaining and whole slide imaging (WSI) analysis. Two types of staining were performed using a 170-core tissue microarray of invasive breast cancer. First, HER2 was stained by immunohistochemistry (IHC), and IHC scores were determined by two practicing pathologists according to the ASCO/CAP HER2 guideline. Second, HER2 was stained with PID, and tentative PID scores were determined by quantitative analysis. The results show that PID can numerically classify HER2 expression status into scores 3+, 2+, 1+, and 0. The HER2 value quantified by PID strongly correlated with the 3, 3’-diaminobenzidine (DAB) IHC score determined by pathologists (R2 = 0.93). PID IHC score 1+ cases included both DAB IHC score 1+ and 0 cases, and low HER2 expression cases appeared to be often evaluated as DAB IHC score 0. Therefore, digital image analysis by PID and WSI can help stratify HER2 IHC. It may also help classify low HER2 expression.
