Breast reconstruction after mastectomy can avoid a permanent deformity. As a member of the breast management team, the reconstructive surgeon can give advice on timing and techniques. Breast reconstruction can either be started at the time of the mastectomy or delayed for months or years. Newer techniques of tissue expansion permit breast reconstruction without additional scars or significant hospitalization. Autogenous tissue breast reconstruction techniques are available that provide natural, long-lasting breast reconstruction without the need for a silicone breast implant.
乳房切除术后的乳房重建可避免永久性畸形。作为乳房管理团队的一员，重建外科医生可就手术时机和技术提供建议。乳房重建既可以在乳房切除时立即开始，也可以推迟数月或数年。组织扩张的新技术使乳房重建无需额外的疤痕或长时间住院。自体组织乳房重建技术可以提供自然、持久的乳房重建，而无需硅胶乳房植入物。
