Breast reconstruction following mastectomy. [Journal Article, Review]
Adv Surg 1983.:49-73.
Breast reconstruction now is an integral and valuable part of the management of patients with breast cancer. It offers hope and restitution for the patient while lessening the ablation and psychologic trauma of mastectomy. Continued close cooperation between the general surgeon and the plastic surgeon will assist the patient in her return as a functioning member of society and not mere survival as a mastectomy cripple.
