Abstract
Breast cancer is the most common malignant neoplasm in women. Radical mastectomy is an integral component of its treatment, but this increases survival rates and the number of disabled persons. Emphasis has been recently made on the improvement of quality of life in patients with breast cancer. Today breast reconstructive surgery is an important component in the general treatment regimen. Breast reconstruction ameliorates psychological trauma associated with mastectomy; the women lose a feeling of mutilation, depression, and apprehension of their femininity. A variety of modifications and options for reconstructive interventions creates the choice problem to be solved together with the patient.
