The goal is to rebuild a natural looking breast with symmetry to the other breast. Depending on the circumstances, breast reconstruction can be performed immediately after mastectomy or a delayed procedure, anywhere from several weeks to years following mastectomy. Today, new surgical techniques give plastic surgeons the tools to create a breast that closely looks and feels like a natural breast. With the rising awareness of these modern advances, more breast cancer patients are a candidate for reconstruction. Breast reconstruction typically requires more than one operative procedure, with additional surgeries to optimize symmetry or rebuild a nipple areolar complex.<\/p>\n<p>The procedure has no known effect on the recurrence of cancer. If your oncologist should find a new tumor during your regular follow-up visits, your reconstruction should not interfere with either chemotherapy or radiation treatment.<\/p>\n<p>Breast reconstruction is usually performed in a hospital under general anesthesia. There are several different methods of breast reconstruction, although the three most commonly employed techniques include expander\/ implant reconstruction, Iatissimus flap reconstruction, and TRAM flap reconstruction. Consultation is necessary to determine which method best meets individual patient needs.<\/p>\n<p>Sometimes the procedure is performed on the remaining breast after a mastectomy on the other side. Your surgeon may recommend breast reduction, breast lift or breast augmentation to help achieve symmetry with a reconstructed breast.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Breast reconstruction is performed after the breast has been removed or distorted due to breast cancer treatment or as another disease.
