Breast Reconstruction Surgery Preparation

It is considered you are in surgery from the moment you arrive to the surgical area until you have sufficiently recovered from anesthesia. Before surgery, your surgeon, anesthesiologist and the nursing staff will meet you in the pre-operative area, to discuss your medical condition and answer your questions.



The anesthesia

What kind of anesthesia is used for breast reconstruction surgery?

Breast reconstruction surgery is performed under general anesthesia with intravenous induction and inhalation anesthesia. You will sleep through the entire operation, feeling no pain and remaining absolutely relaxed. The section about Anesthesia provides complete information on this medical practice along with recommendations and instructions.

How long does breast reconstruction surgery take?

Surgery time for breast reconstruction depends on the technique used, whether it is performed along with mastectomy or post-mastectomy. According to your case, your doctor will inform you approximate time of surgery.

Hospitalization

Will I require hospitalization?



Breast reconstruction surgery involves a complex surgical procedure that demands medical observation. Your surgeon might recommend a stay at the surgical center to observe your recovery progress.







Patient preparation before surgery

   
You will be asked to remove your underarm hair by using depilatory cream instead of razor. The use of razors prior to surgery increases the incidence of wound infection.
Patient preparation includes treating the surgical site before surgery, using appropriate antiseptic agents for skin preparation.
In the operating room the intravenous therapy or IV will be initiated. The IV is the giving of liquid substances directly into a vein. Through a needle you will receive saline solution, anesthesia, and other medications you may need during surgery.
Once you have moved over the operating table, you will be placed in a supine position with arms in abduction. This means that you will be lying down with the face up and open arms. The elbows are cushioned with pillows to prevent any postoperative discomfort.
