Can mastectomy be performed at the same time as breast reconstruction surgery? When faced with a breast cancer diagnosis, many immediately think of a mastectomy, which can be a significant psychological and physical burden. However, after a thorough assessment of the risks involved, even if a surgeon recommends a total mastectomy due to the inability to preserve the breast, there's no need for excessive worry. Patients can consider reconstructive surgery, which can reshape the breast and does not increase the risk of cancer recurrence.
But when is the best time for breast reconstruction surgery? What surgical options are available? How is the reconstruction performed? We invite Dr. Ying Wai-Leung, Marcus, a specialist in General Surgery at Chiron Medical, to provide insights and answers.
