BREAST RECONSTRUCTION USING EXPANDER AND FAT GRAFTING AFTER MASTECTOMY ASSOCIATED TO RADIOTHERAPY
Keywords:
Mammaplasty, mastectomy, radiotherapy, fat graftingAbstract
Breast surgery has evolved very rapidly in recent years. New oncoplastic techniques have emerged, which allowed the maintenance of a good approach in surgical treatment of breast cancer, reducing the physical and mental suffering of the patients for presenting better aesthetic results. This case report refers to a 45-year-old female patient who underwent mastectomy and radiotherapy eight years ago due to breast cancer, and had her breast reconstructed with the use of a submuscular expander associated to fat grafting. This study aimed to show a therapeutic option in breast reconstruction.
