One in eight women in the United
States will be diagnosed with breast cancer. The loss of a breast can be
devastating, but with modern medicine, breast reconstruction can be achieved.
However,
advances in early detection of breast cancer and better techniques for breast
reconstruction have dramatically improved not only survival rates, but the
overall quality of life for these women. I feel that breast reconstruction is
one of the most rewarding aspects of plastic surgery because it allows the
reconstruction of what cancer has taken away. Breast reconstruction is
typically accomplished in one of three ways: an implant, use of the back muscle
(latissimus dorsi) with an implant, or using the stomach fat (TRAM flap). Schedule
