Abstract
Background: Women who undergo breast surgery often have prophylactic, diagnostic or endocrine indication for gynaecological procedure and the two can be performed concurrently. The most serious postoperative complication in women who undergo mastectomy with implant reconstruction is infection that can result in implant loss. Due to increased operating time and an intraabdominal procedure, coordinated surgical management could increase the likelihood of infectious complications. The aim of our study was to compare infectious complication rate after mastectomy with tissue implant reconstruction in a group of patients with and without concurrent gynaecological procedure.
