title: [New aspects of adequate postoperative prosthetic management following mastectomy].
abstract: The availability of one unitised organ replacement model is no longer sufficient for adequate prosthetic care at any time. The first phase of a complex system of prosthetic care was completed by the development of "femi-Form", an epithesis master model, in 1982. Two more variants were introduced in 1986, "femi-Form S" and an interim prosthesis. The complex system of prosthetic care in its totality is considered to be an important step in public health. Great attention is given to it in the GDR for follow-up treatment in the context of tumour diseases. Manufacturers are expected to go to great lengths in developing adequate prosthetic devices for postoperative care. However, it is a challenge to the medical profession to speed up and generally support the introduction of this complex post-mastectomy system.
