BREAST CANCER ~ new cases per year- In Lane county Nationally- ~70% breast conservation vs. 30% mastectomy Nationally-~20-30% will undergo reconstruction-

BREAST RECONSTRUCTION AND WOMEN’S HEALTH Congress guaranteed universal coverage for breast reconstruction after cancer surgery in 1998.

… So, why such a low rate of breast Reconstruction?

NATIONAL UTILIZATION OF IMMEDIATE AND EARLY DELAYED BREAST RECONSTRUCTION, (ALDERMAN PRS 2003) 10,404 mastectomy treatments for breast cancer On average, 15.4% breast reconstruction within 1 st 4 months  Atlanta- highest 33.6%  Hawaii- Lowest 7.6%
