Résumé

Post-mastectomy irradiation severely impairs skin trophicity resulting in poor prosthetic implant outcome. Autologous fat grafting improves skin quality allowing minimally invasive approach with prosthetic reconstruction. Here, we report our pilot experience of preoperative mechanotherapy to optimize lipofilling and subsequent prosthetic reconstruction outcome.
