  • Title: [Reconstructive surgery in breast cancer operation].
    Author: Noguchi M, Earashi M, Kinoshita K, Taniya T, Miyazaki I.
    Journal: Gan To Kagaku Ryoho; 1994 Jun; 21 Suppl 2():233-7. PubMed ID: 8037487.
    Abstract:
    We reported our experience with immediate breast reconstruction after partial or total mastectomy. In patients who underwent breast conserving surgery (BCT), an immediate transposition of adipose tissue with latissimus dorsi muscle vascular pedicle was carried out with the aim of improving cosmetics after wide excision. In those who received modified radical mastectomy, immediate breast reconstruction (MIBR) using a transverse abdominomyocutaneous flap or latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap was carried out. Although either BCT or MIBR was performed at the patient's request, reconstructive surgery thus plays an important role in breast cancer operation.
