Reconstruction
of a breast that has been removed due to cancer or
other disease is one of the most rewarding surgical
procedures available today. New medical techniques
and devices have made it possible for surgeons to create
a breast that can come close in form and appearance
to matching a natural breast. Frequently, reconstruction
is possible immediately following breast removal (mastectomy),
so the patient wakes up with a breast mound already
in place, having been spared the experience of seeing
herself with no breast at all.
One

to have been eliminated by mastectomy.
