Abstract:
BACKGROUND:The aim of this study was to compare long-term clinical and patient-reported outcomes in terms of satisfaction and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) following postmastectomy breast reconstruction using BREAST-Q in patients undergoing implant-based reconstruction, abdominal-based autologous reconstruction, and combined reconstruction (with implant and LD flap or implant and TDAP flap). METHODS:A cross-sectional study was conducted. Patients had undergone delayed postmastectomy breast reconstruction and completed the BREAST-Q reconstruction module. The results were related to the clinical data obtained from the clinic's patient record system. A 5-year examination was included. Mean scores and standard deviations were calculated. Kruskal-Wallis test, Chi-square goodness of fit test and Chi-square test were used for the statistical analysis. RESULTS:Overall, 110 patients (n = 24 implant, n = 38 autologous, n = 48 combination) were included. Patients with autologous reconstruction reported greater postoperative satisfaction with breasts (p < 0.001), satisfaction with outcome (p < 0.001), psychosocial well-being (p = 0.001), and sexual well-being (p = 0.051). CONCLUSION:This study represents a comprehensive long-term examination of postmastectomy breast reconstruction. Autologous reconstruction patients had higher postoperative satisfaction and HRQoL than patients receiving other types of reconstruction despite having more intense oncological therapy and the highest mean number of follow-up surgical procedures.
