About
Milton B. Armstrong is a pioneering plastic and reconstructive surgeon whose research focuses on advancing microsurgical techniques, particularly in perforator flap surgery and breast reconstruction. He is best known for his work on the deep inferior epigastric artery perforator (DIEP) flap, where he has explored minimally invasive approaches to reduce donor-site morbidity and improve patient outcomes. His 2018 study on the "Minimally Invasive Laparoscopically Dissected Deep Inferior Epigastric Artery Perforator Flap" demonstrated anatomical feasibility and reported the first clinical case, offering a novel, less invasive alternative to traditional flap harvest. This work has garnered attention in the reconstructive surgery community, with 5 citations, and represents a significant step toward refining autologous breast reconstruction. Beyond this, Armstrong has contributed broadly to wound healing, pressure ulcer management, and surgical education. His impact is reflected in his role as a leader in academic plastic surgery, where he has mentored numerous trainees and advanced the field through both clinical innovation and rigorous anatomical study.
