tram flap for breast reconstruction in Iran Dr. Reza Hessami

Plastic surgery can accomplish a great deal, but some of the most important work that a plastic surgeon can do is helping women regain a sense of normalcy and wholeness after undergoing a mastectomy for the treatment of breast cancer.

Although the inspiring women who struggle against and overcome breast cancer are all on a similar journey, no two are ever on exactly the same path, which is one of the reasons why there are so many different approaches to breast reconstruction surgery. Some utilize silicone or saline breast implants, like those used during breast augmentation, while others rely on the manipulation of the patient’s own tissue. While each approach has distinct advantages that allow it to be customized to the needs of the individual patient, one of the most effective and versatile of the autologous tissue breast reconstruction methods is still the classic TRAM flap breast reconstruction technique.
