ABSTRACT
Analysis of the psychic situation of the women after mastectomy. Most surgeons are against an immediate reconstruction of the breast, because the comparison to conditions before the amputation is usually too negative. The main argument against immediate reconstruction is the local recurrence which occurs in the first 6 postoperative months in 75% of the cases. In stage 0, no local recurrences were observed. If a mastectomy is performed in this stage, immediate reconstruction can be done. In stage 1 the number of local recurrences is 5% in the first postoperative months. In elected cases, if it is the expressed wish of the patient immediate reconstruction can be discussed. In stage 2 the local recurrence rate is already 13,8%. In this stage, an immediate reconstruction is out of the question.
