Abstract
Background: Post-mastectomy immediate breast reconstruction (PMIBR) improves patients' quality of life and is an important component of the multidisciplinary care of breast cancer patients. Despite the increasing proportion of older women (aged >65 years) living with breast cancer, studies suggest there is still a lower uptake of PMIBR in older women. We aim to explore reasons for the disparity in uptake of PMIBR in older women compared to younger women.
