Dr Maria João Cardoso speaks to ecancer at BGICC 2023 about the advancements in breast reconstructive surgery.
She outlines that previously breast implants were positioned behind the pectoral muscle, but in more recent years there has been a shift to position the implant in front of the pectoral muscle directly behind the skin.
Dr João Cardoso highlights the need for future trials to gather more long term effect data on this surgical technique.
