One‐stage muscle‐sparing breast reconstruction in elderly patients: A new tool for retaining excellent quality of life

More than 50% of breast cancer care occurs in elderly but women aged 65 and over generally have lower breast reconstruction ( BR ) rates. In medical literature, few papers focused on BR in elderly patients and usually the reported techniques are multisteps such as expander‐implant reconstruction, local, and free flaps. We present a one‐stage reconstruction technique employed in elderly patients: muscle‐sparing immediate BR with subcutaneous implant and Braxon acellular dermal matrix. We prove the feasibility and safety of the technique and believe that this new procedure could represent a potential benefit in elderly BR .
