As methods have advanced, trends in breast reconstruction after mastectomy have changed considerably with more emphasis being placed on reconstruction by means of tissue expansion. Indications for using the various methods available are discussed and their advantages and disadvantages enumerated. By May 1987, 95 breasts in 88 patients had been reconstructed at Groote Schuur Hospital with few complications. The challenge remains one of improving the appearance of reconstructed breasts.
