Delayed Breast Reconstruction after Modified Radical Mastectomy

Abstract

Breast is an important sign of femininity; hence it is a great disaster for females to amputate it in cancer treatment reflecting these effects such as deviations deeply disturb both the patient’s perception of her body as well as her emotional balance, together with reducing patient’s self-esteem and well being. Diagnostic investigations for breast cancer may be: Non-Invasiveor Invasive. The most ambitious and difficult goal in breast reconstruction is giving the patient the best chance for management of her cancer regarding the oncological safety of the procedure and best cosmetic result with no increase in the overall complications and no delay in completion of the adjuvant therapy. Reconstruction after ablative surgery for cancer breast should be offered to all patients whenever possible, the very few contraindications of such reconstruction were the presence of residual malignancy, presence of chronic debilitating disease, psychologically unfit patients and patient’s refusal.
