Description

What are my reconstruction choices after a breast cancer diagnosis? Breast reconstruction options are the focus here. Eveline Klenotic, DO, specialist in breast surgery/breast surgical oncology at Summa Health, and Mike Tran, M.D., Physician in Plastic Surgery at Summa Health, explain how choices differ between breast-conserving surgery and mastectomy, implant versus autologous (your own tissue) reconstruction, nipple-sparing approaches, and the role of shared planning between breast and plastic surgeons to match treatment to your goals.
