A 42-year-old woman was referred for consideration of left-sided mastectomy and immediate reconstruction. She previously had a bilateral breast augmentation using silicone implants. She desired to maintain her breast size and natural appearance. Owing to the availability of sufficient abdominal tissue, the option of an immediate unilateral breast reconstruction and contralateral augmentation with a differentially split deep inferior epigastric perforator flaps was offered to the patient. The patient had a successful reconstructive and contralateral symmetrising procedure with an uneventful postoperative recovery. She was satisfied with her breast size, which was achieved without the use of implants. In selected patients the free deep inferior epigastric perforator flap provides an appropriate option for unilateral breast reconstruction and contralateral breast augmentation. It has numerous advantages including making use of available excess abdominal tissue and avoiding implant related complications.
