Abstract
A review of 198 cases of breast reconstruction done at the time of mastectomy for carcinoma of the breast shows an extremely low morbidity. The technique of using a tissue-expander prosthesis enables immediate breast reconstruction without any fear of impairing prognosis, of spreading disease, or of impeding adjuvant therapy.
