Brief Summary
Many hospitals, including the Ohio State University Medical Center, will take pictures of the blood vessels in a patient's abdomen before they decide to perform a breast reconstruction using the patient's own tissue. These pictures are called computed tomography (CT) angiograms and are like a map of each patient's anatomy. However, no study has been reported that determined how accurate these pictures are at showing the surgeon where all of the blood vessels were located. This study will try to determine if these pictures are missing any blood vessels that are found during surgery and if the pictures show the correct location of the vessels

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
The number of perforators that are found intraoperatively but not seen preoperatively on CT angiogram images
Up to 2 years
Whether the preoperative CT angiography allowed the surgeon to accurately predict the perforator vessels that were actually used in the final flap design and transfer
Up to 2 years
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Position of the vessels on the imaging correlate to actual location on the abdominal wall for those perforator vessels that are identified both on preoperative review of the images and located during flap dissection
Up to 2 years
Study Arms (1)
Supportive care (image-guided breast reconstruction)
EXPERIMENTALPatients undergo DIEP flap breast reconstruction using the StealthStation navigation system.
Interventions

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Patients with histologically confirmed breast carcinoma or breast carcinoma in situ desiring unilateral or bilateral deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap breast reconstruction
- Patients must be candidates for elective surgery, without clinically significant cardiac or pulmonary disease (New York Heart Association \[NYHA\] class III/IV), without infection requiring antibiotics, and without serious illness requiring the use of steroids
- Patients must have normal kidney function and no allergy to intravenous (IV) dye
You may not qualify if:
- Patients with previous abdominal donor site flaps will be excluded along with patients with previous extensive surgery to the anterior abdomen
- Patients with a weight of over 300 pounds or a body size not supported by the CT scanner will be excluded
- Patients who are expected to undergo postoperative radiation therapy will be excluded
