Abstract
OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study is to describe the current trends of breast reconstruction (BR) and breast oncoplasty (BO) for breast cancer patients in Reunion Island. METHODS: This is a multicenter retrospective descriptive study of all BR and BO surgeries in 2016. We studied the first stage of BR that corresponds to the choice of surgical technique. Patient's age, care center, technique and duration of surgery, complications and their risk factors were reviewed. Patient satisfaction was assessed using the modified BREAST-Q©. RESULTS: In 2016, BR rate over total mastectomy was 47.6% and BO rate was 6.3% over partial mastectomy. Among the 92 patients included, 25 immediate BR were performed (84% in private institution) and 44 delayed BR (67% in public hospital). Although prosthetic techniques were the most used, satisfaction seems to be better with autologous techniques. CONCLUSIONS: The ratio of BR is high in Reunion Island with a wide range of techniques but uneven practice. Conversely, BO's ratio is low and improvement is needed.
