Case Details
72 year old patient with bilateral breast cancer. Her cancer surgery required a right mastectomy and left lumpectomy. Preoperative photos show a large bruise from her biopsy on the right side. She was going to need post mastectomy radiation therapy to the right breast. A challenging reconstruction to achieve symmetry. The breasts were asymmetric to begin with, she would require skin removal over the tumor on the right hand side, and the radiation results would be unpredictable. Reconstruction was performed with a left breast oncoplastic breast reduction (a reduction at the time of tumor removal) and a two-stage expander to implant reconstruction on the right side. The final implant on the right is a 405cc MPX silicone gel implant. Fat transfer was also performed on the right to the upper breast for symmetry.
