Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women. Although great advances have been made in the early detection of this cancer, the need for removal of a major portion of the breast or the entire breast is still necessary for those who are inflicted with this disease. When the breast is removed either partially or completely, the normal balance of the female chest is altered. This imbalance may be devastating to the patient. The psychological and physical trauma of breast cancer is a severe impediment to the normal lifestyle of a woman. Plastic surgeons are among a team of physicians that have help women with breast cancer recover from this disease. A plastic surgeon can recreate a new breast in case of complete breast removal, or equalize the shape of the two breasts in case of partial breast removal. This reconstruction greatly improves the overall shape and balance of the female chest and helps to ameliorate the psychological trauma of breast cancer.
