Abstract
Breast reconstruction is becoming increasingly important due to changes in patient expectations and demand. There is growing recognition that immediate reconstruction in appropriately selected women can combine an oncological and aesthetic procedure in one operation with excellent results. Because most breast surgery is performed by general surgeons, most reconstructions were performed as delayed procedures by plastic surgeons. Increasingly, breast surgery is being performed by breast surgeons trained in oncoplastic techniques who can offer immediate reconstruction with both therapeutic and economic option.
Post mastectomy breast reconstruction seems to be generally accepted procedure and represents a surgical option that improves psychosocial outcome.
