Prosthetic vs. Autologous<br />

• Prosthetic<br />

• Shorter surgery but can<br />

require two surgeries to<br />

exchange expander for<br />

implant<br />

• Uses implant material<br />

• Possible implant<br />

rupture<br />

• Very acceptable method<br />

of reconstruction<br />

• Autologous<br />

• Longer surgery, but in<br />

many cases is the only<br />

surgery<br />

• No need for implant<br />

• Uses “you to make you”<br />

• Can match the opposite<br />

breast very well in many<br />

cases
