Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women, and the incidence rate of breast tumors in China has been increasing year by year and the trend of youthfulness. Modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer is the most commonly used and effective method for treating breast tumors at present, and only a very small number of people can reach the treatment standard of preserving the breasts, but modified radical mastectomy inevitably results in the loss of one side of the breast, which will bring a great influence on the patient’s daily life and work. So after removing one side of the breast, can you make another false breast? This is to achieve the requirement of aesthetic symmetry, and also comfort the patient’s psychology after the operation. The answer is of course yes, this method is medically known as breast reconstruction after breast cancer surgery. Breast reconstruction belongs to the scope of plastic surgery, and reconstructing a new breast is the job of our plastic surgeons. Many people would be surprised to know how a new breast can be reconstructed. Aren’t there prosthetic breasts for sale now? Many breast surgeons recommend that patients wear breast implants after surgery, so why bother with a fake one, what a pain. A breast prosthesis is a plastic breast that can be removed at any time to maintain its appearance, but it is not part of your body. When breast cancer patients see their missing breasts or the long scar on the chest wall, they will certainly be very irritated, after all, the breast is a functional organ of the human body, which is the symbol of female physical beauty, especially for the younger patients, and many women can not accept the loss of their breasts. So how to do breast reconstruction? Breast reconstruction can be categorized into one-stage breast reconstruction and two-stage breast reconstruction according to time. Phase I Breast Reconstruction: It is also known as modified radical mastectomy with skin preservation + immediate implantation of breast reconstruction. The surgical method is to preserve the skin of the breast, excise all the glands and tumors inside the breast, and then immediately place a silicone gel implant for reconstruction, which is the same as the one normally used for breast augmentation, so that the volume of the implant makes up for the volume of the excised glands and tumors, and the form of the breast is maintained. The volume of the implant compensates for the volume of the removed gland and tumor and maintains the shape of the breast. Stage II Breast Reconstruction: What is Stage II? That is to say, many patients have their breasts removed under unsuitable conditions, and after a period of time of radiotherapy, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy and other treatments, the patient’s physical conditions, local skin conditions and other conditions can be, and then breast reconstruction is carried out. So what are the methods of stage II breast reconstruction? Commonly used second stage breast reconstruction methods include: 1, latissimus dorsi muscle flap or joint prosthesis for breast reconstruction, 2, transverse rectus abdominis muscle flap, 3, submental artery perforator flap, which is too complicated to understand, I’ll make it simpler for you, that is, a piece of muscle in the back or abdomen is transferred to the chest together with the skin and subcutaneous fat, and the transferred tissues are wrapped together and survived. The transferred tissue is wrapped together and survives to form a reconstructed breast, which can be combined with an implant if it is not large enough. There is also a new research method: 4, fat grafting breast reconstruction. You may have guessed how to operate, the method is suitable for patients with excess fat in the body, the fat will be suctioned out, injected into the chest wall of the missing part of the breast, so that the new breast inside the whole body fat, similar to our plastic surgeon to do fat breast augmentation. To summarize, studies have shown that breast reconstruction does not affect the effect and prognosis of the subsequent treatment of tumors, but also can maximize the improvement of the appearance of the female form, eliminating the psychological and physiological problems of female patients with missing breasts, it is a safe and effective treatment. It is a safe and effective treatment. Please feel free to pursue your own beauty.
