Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if delayed-delayed breast reconstruction in women who require post-mastectomy radiation therapy will improve cosmetic outcomes and result in fewer complications compared to the standard approach (reconstruction that is not started until radiation treatment is completed).

PROCEDURE

Delayed Breast Reconstruction

Approximately 3 months after postmastectomy radiation therapy, the preserved, irradiated, and re-inflated breast skin will be used to perform the delayed breast reconstruction. During the stage 2 reconstruction, the implant or expander will be removed and the definitive reconstruction will be performed with the preserved breast skin utilizing a preference for autologous tissue or autologous tissue with an implant due to the potential for complications with implant-based reconstructions after radiation therapy (XRT).
