Breast Reconstruction
Reconstruction of one or both breasts after mastectomy for cancer, or due to a congenital abnormality of breast development is done using implants or lower abdominal fat and skin ( TRAM flap ). This procedure can be done at the time of the mastectomy or as a secondary procedure and involves anywhere from one to five hours with one to five days in the hospital for recovery. It is most often covered by insurance.
