Post Mastectomy Reconstruction
One in eight women will be diagnosed with breast cancer in their lifetime. Treatments for breast cancer include lumpectomy, partial mastectomy, complete mastectomy, lymph node removal and radiation therapy. All of these may result in defects or the absence of the breast. At Midwest Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery we have extensive experience in breast reconstruction using a variety of techniques. Please contact us for a personalized discussion of the various types of post mastectomy reconstruction including their indications, risks, and alternatives.
