The aim of this study is to present a series of rescue mastectomy cases, describe the flaps used in these surgeries and the prevalence of this type of surgery. Methods: This descriptive and retrospective study collects information from patients treated at the Mastology Service of Solca-Guayaquil during the period from January 1 to December 31, 2015. They reported histopathological diagnosis of mammary carcinoma and were enrolled clinically in stage IIb , III and IV. Univariate statistics are used. Results: The prevalence of MR was 14/610 cases (5.32 %). In the present case series, 57 % were resolved with tension flaps and 14 % was resolved with a latissimus dorsi flap.
