Delayed total breast reconstruction with brava

Niels Hammer-Hansen, Thomas Bo Jensen, Tine Engberg Damsgaard

Abstract

Several surgical procedures exist in regard to reconstruction of the breast after mastectomy. The use of Brava a vacuum-based external soft-tissue expansion system in combination with fat transplantation is a less documented but viable option in treating patients after mastectomy. We share our experience in treating a 57-year-old patient with mastectomy, describing the complications and pitfalls we experienced when using the Brava system in combination with fat transplantation.
