Breast reconstruction is a very important issue in patients whose breasts have been removed (mastectomy) due to
breast cancer. Completing the woman's missing breast makes her feel whole.
Breast reconstruction should be performed in all women who are in good general health. This reconstruction is achieved with excess tissues taken from the abdomen and back. In appropriate cases, this configuration can also be achieved with tissue expansion and silicone breast implants. Depending on the characteristics of the case, these methods can be blended and the ideal breast shape can be achieved with a combined method.
After breast reconstruction, the nipple and its surroundings are created, giving the breast its real appearance.
Breast cancer
strong> It is a type of cancer that is very common in women. Thanks to the latest developments in medicine, in breast cancers detected early, a large part of the breast is preserved by removing a limited amount of breast tissue. There are also cases that require radiotherapy. In some types of cancer, the skin is protected by evacuating the inside of the breast. There are also cases where the nipple is protected. In such cases, it is possible to obtain a very good breast shape by using silicone breast prosthesis and regional tissue-supported surgeries. There are methods of creating new breasts using only the patient's own tissues. Abdominal and back area tissues are the tissues we use most frequently in such surgeries.In cases where the entire breast is removed, the excess tissue area in the abdominal area is used and a new breast is made. The breast is very similar to the other breast and is often made more beautiful than the original. In some cases where the abdominal area is not preferred, breast construction using back tissues provides effective results.
Nowadays, breast construction is possible in the same session. In cases where the first surgery is not suitable for medical reasons, this surgery is also performed in the late period.
