Breast Reconstruction - Case 1
Immediate Tissue Expander Implant
This patient is a 57 year old woman who presented for reconstruction at the time
of mastectomy. She elected to pursue immediate tissue expander placement, placed
at the time of mastectomy. Following her course of tissue expansion, she underwent
a second stage procedure with removal of the expander and placement of a moderate
profile silicone gel breast implant. She subsequently underwent nipple areolar reconstruction.
