Breast cancer is the most common malignant tumor in women. It is estimated that 1/8 women will develop cancer in their lifetime.
Thanks to early diagnosis, breast cancer is a curable disease today. In early stages, surgery and complementary treatments achieve cures of the disease, without relapses over the years.
Once the patient is free of disease after applying combinations of different treatments (surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, hormone therapy, etc.) it is time to reconstruct the breast (if the patient wants).
Breast reconstruction means for the woman to regain her femininity, her confidence, to feel alive and free of disease, without stigmata or marks; it often allows her to dress again without having to wear pads inside her bra… and the results, thanks to the progress of surgery are impressive. There are different techniques that are used alone or in combination with others, and whose results make breast reconstruction a very desirable process for women.
In conclusion, each woman’s reconstructive process is different. There are different types of oncologic resections, different types of breasts and multiple options for reconstruction. The reconstruction process has to be established and agreed with each patient according to the professional’s advice and the patient’s preferences.
