title: [Mammaplasty immediately after mastectomy for breast cancer].
abstract: From March 1990 to March 1994, 7 cases of one stage breast reconstruction with silicone prosthesis after mastectomy for breast cancer were performed in our hospital. All the operations were successful and no operative complication observed. They were followed up for three months to four years. The contour was good, symmetrical, soft to touch and the patients did not complain uncomfortable sensation. The authors propose that immediate reconstruction of the breast be recommended. In this paper, the indications, methods, selection of opportune time for operation and precautions are discussed.
