Abstract

Background and Objective: Pre-pectoral implant-based reconstruction (PIBR) is becoming increasingly popular. It is known that the data available so far are limited regarding the effect of post-mastectomy radiotherapy (PMRT) in PIBR. This as well true with data about effect of previous breast radiotherapy (RT). Relatively few studies were undertaken and their outcomes were released in the last few years. Some of them were designed to address impact of RT. Others just mentioned its effect on their cohort. Hence this review was undertaken to study the effect of RT (both pre- and post-mastectomy) on PIBR.
