Abstract :

There are many variables that must be considered when making decisions for breast reconstruction. Consideration of the patient and oncologic variables is becoming increasingly appreciated when selecting the surgical team and technique as a predictor of good outcomes following mastectomy and reconstruction. This discussion is structured to review the variables that are relevant when deciding upon a particular reconstructive option for a particular patient.
