Observational study reveals rising rates of immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy, indicating greater surgical resource needs across age groups.
Rates of Ma + IBR have increased over years, especially among older women. Ma + IBR resulted in longer operative times and hospital stay than Ma alone. These findings imply that, in the near future, resources should be implemented to improve and strengthen the surgical activity of Breast Units, to support the increasing use of IBR in women of all age groups.
