Abstract
This article reviews the different types of reconstructive surgery and their relationship with irradiation, including immediate heterologous reconstruction techniques, definitive prostheses, tissue expanders, delayed reconstruction with heterologous and/or autologous techniques, nipple-areola complex reconstruction, and lipofilling. We review the complications of combining radiotherapy and reconstructive surgery, and establish practical recommendations.
