Delayed breast reconstruction after performing radical mastectomy for cancer is a surgical method of rehabilitation of patients. Breast reconstruction is performed to improve the quality of life of patients with breast cancer. Breast restoration using expander is used in women with a small breast size, as well as in patients who refuse to use patchwork techniques of breast restoration. In P. A. Herzen MORI 27 patients with a diagnosis of breast cancer was performed in delayed breast reconstruction after radical mastectomy. To achieve symmetry in 51,9 % of cases the operations were also performed on the healthy breast. During the observation period up to 4 years, no signs of progression of the underlying disease were found in this group.
