[Surgical procedure for secondary breast reconstruction after mastectomy].
The type of reconstruction is determined by the mastectomy deformity and requirements for symmetry. There are five basic techniques. A silicone breast implant placed submuscularly beneath the available tissues is the most straight-forward procedure. Latissimus dorsi flap is used with a silicone breast implant when additional skin and/or muscular cover is needed. Transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous utilizes excess lower abdominal tissue for reconstruction of the breast with autogenous tissue. The tissue expander is most frequently used following modified radical mastectomy. The external oblique rectus abdominis musculofascial turn-over flap is an attractive new technique.
