Surgical Clinics of North America, 2013
As diagnostic technology has progressed and the understanding of the disease process has evolved, the number of mastectomies performed in the United States has increased. Breast reconstructive techniques have commensurately become more sophisticated along the same timeline. The result is that those facing mastectomy have the potential to simultaneously

Surgical Oncology Clinics of North America, 1997
The options for breast reconstruction include implant and expander, latissimus dorsi flap, TRAM flap, and free flaps. The moratorium on silicone gel implants has increased the use of TRAM and free flap breast reconstruction. Immediate reconstruction after preoperative planning with the surgical oncologist has improved the aesthetic results.

Medical Journal of Australia, 1982
This paper reviews a series of 40 consecutive breast reconstructions. Women of all ages, even many years after mastectomy, are seeking this form of rehabilitation. Breast reconstruction is now a practical proposition because of the low rate of complication and the minimal stay in hospital required.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 2018
Breast reconstruction is offered to women undergoing mastectomy or breast conservation, given its safe nature and highly aesthetic reconstructive outcomes. Breast implants are safe, offer flexibility of sizes and projections, and shorter recovery. Autologous flaps allow women to avoid prosthetic devices, using skin and fat to replace breast tissue. The

Breast Reconstruction and Lymphedema
Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2010The authors conducted this study to determine the following: Does delayed breast reconstruction that requires surgical dissection in the previously operated on and/or irradiated axilla lead to a higher incidence of lymphedema? In patients who have developed lymphedema following mastectomy, does delayed breast reconstruction with autologous flap reduce ...

Obstetrics and Gynecology Clinics of North America, 2002
This article reviews the most common procedures utilized by plastic surgeons for breast reconstruction. It discusses the different types of autologous reconstruction and modifications of each. When autologous tissue is not an option, reconstruction using an implant is explored. The other breast may require surgery in order to gain symmetry.
