Breast cancer is the most common type of cancer for women in the western world, in Sweden 1 out of 8 women is diagnosed with breast cancer. How much of the breast that needs to be removed in a mastectomy varies. Sometimes only a smaller part of the breast tissue needs to be removed and in some cases all breast tissue needs to be removed and a breast reconstruction is done at the same time. Often a breast reconstruction is done at a later stage.
Breast Reconstructive Surgery
Reconstruction
Some women have a higher risk of developing breast cancer due to family genetics of breast cancer. When there is a significant history of breast cancer in the family an investigation should be completed. If an investigation shows that a women has an increased risk of breast cancer, a controlled program with regular breast screening is offered or alternatively a prophylactive risk-reducing mastectomy.
Reconstrutcion
Usually a reconstruction of the breast is done at the same time as the mastectomy but due to the combination of these two surgeries there can be a loss in sensation. It is important for women to understand the risk of numbness and loss of sensation when considering a risk reducing breast surgery. A breast can be recreated in 2 ways: A breast implant can be implanted or tissue from another body part, such as the lower abdomen, will be used to replace the removed breast tissue. Which technique is used is based on several factors, patients’ choice and physical prerequisites.
Method
Sometimes smaller adjustments are needed after a breast reconstruction to create a satisfactory result. It can be change of implant, fat transfer or surgery to the healthy breast to create symmetry.
