How Breast Reconstruction (Implant/Autologous) is performed
Reconstruction options include implant systems (including direct insertion or tissue expander-two-stage) or autologous tissue flaps (such as skin flaps/musculocutaneous flaps), which can be performed at the same time as resection or delayed. A common approach is to create a cavity in the chest wall to place an implant, or to free/transpose autologous tissue and perform vascular anastomosis to restore breast shape and symmetry. Postoperative monitoring includes pain, drainage, and perfusion of the donor and recipient areas, gradually adjusting the shape and arranging follow-up. The above is general health information and not medical advice; specific details depend on specialist evaluation and hospital protocols.
