Breast cancer cells multiply uncontrollably and are more than necessary in an infected person. There are different types of breast cancer. Its type depends on which type of breast cells is affected. This cancer may start from different places in the breast. It is possible that a person is about to undergo a mastectomy or breast tissue removal surgery due to breast cancer or being prone to it, or has undergone this surgery in the past. In such a situation, the doctor will probably talk to the person about breast reconstruction options. Breast reconstruction is usually done during mastectomy or shortly after, although it can be done even years after mastectomy or lumpectomy. Repair is done in two different ways: autologous repair, in which a part of the tissue of person's own body is used to replace the breast tissue, and repair by means of artificial implants or a combination of both methods.
