Case description

Breast reconstruction following a mastectomy aims to restore the natural appearance of the breasts, helping survivors regain confidence, a sense of empowerment, and a sense of wholeness. Autologous tissue reconstruction uses the patient's tissue, typically from the abdomen, back, or surrounding breast to reconstruct the breast. The technique results in a more natural-looking and feeling breast. Dr Vipin Goel demostrates various volume displacement techniques that can be used to achieve an oncologically sound cancer resection with adequate margins and also give an acceptable cosmetic outcome. It is important for women to discuss their options with a surgeon to determine the best approach for their individual needs and desired outcomes.
