With breast cancer (BC) becoming more treatable, breast reconstruction has become an integral part of BC treatment. Nowadays, implant‐based breast reconstruction is more common. However, there is a growing interest in autologous breast reconstruction due to the increasing awareness of implant‐related complications. This work provides a comprehensive overview of the evolution of autologous reconstruction techniques of the breast and the nipple‐areolar complex (NAC).
