La reconstrucción de la mama tras su extirpación por cáncer de mama u otra enfermedad (mastectomía) es uno de los procedimientos quirúrgicos [...] más gratificantes para la paciente. El desarrollo de nuevas técnicas y materiales médicos posibilitan al cirujano plástico crear una mama similar en forma, textura y características a la mama no operada.
