The Case for Breast Reconstruction After Mastectomy

Randolph H. Guthrie Jr. M.D.1

1 Associate Professor of Surgery, Cornell University Medical College, Attending Surgeon, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, and Associate Attending Surgeon, The New York Hospital, New York, New York.

The simplicity of the procedure, including the shortness of time required, minimal patient discomfort and low rate of complications, and the superior results that can be achieved warrant serious consideration being given to this procedure for all mastectomy patients.
