Immediate reconstruction or not? Sid Schwab weighs in:
But having treated many hundreds of women with breast cancer (I lost count a long time ago) and having been (so I was told) more sensitive to the horror and fear than the “typical” surgeon, I feel qualified to express myself. My thoughts are based in the reality I saw in my practice. So here it is: though not opposed, and having participated in many cases of it, I’m not a big fan of immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy.
