Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Data from the National Cancer Institute (Inca) reveal that breast cancer is the most common type of cancer among women worldwide. In Brazil, it is second only to non-melanoma skin cancer. Breast cancer is a feared disease in the female universe because it is considered one of the major causes of death due to neoplasia among women. It brings also the stigma of suffering, mutilation, loss of female identity and loss of body contour. Among other issues, problems with body self-image may have an impact on sexuality and fertility, and also, the incapacity to breastfeed. Breast reconstruction can restore the patient's shape and physical integrity, among other benefits. The research justifies itself because information about the satisfaction of breast reconstruction can be achieved. It is also known that women having breast reconstruction after a mastectomy due to cancer have a favorable evolution. This study will analyze body contour satisfaction of women undergoing mastectomy and breast reconstruction as part of their breast cancer treatment. The Breast Q questionnaire will be used to measure patients satisfaction.
