Deep inferior epigastric perforator flap demonstrating the triple response of Lewis phenomenon – A case report and insights into aetiology

Dermatographism, also known as skin writing, is an immunological response that remains an enigma. It occurs when normal skin is stroked with a dull object causing it to become raised and inflamed, and assume the shape of the stroke. Here we present a case of dermatographia in a denervated deep infer...

description Dermatographism, also known as skin writing, is an immunological response that remains an enigma. It occurs when normal skin is stroked with a dull object causing it to become raised and inflamed, and assume the shape of the stroke. Here we present a case of dermatographia in a denervated deep inferior epigastric perforator flap used to reconstruct breast tissue following mastectomy.
