Abstract
Our findings suggest that tension and post-surgical factors play a causal role in this hitherto undescribed entity: “post-reconstruction dermatitis of the breast.” This is a manageable condition that develops weeks to years following breast reconstruction. Topical corticosteroids and antibiotics result in restoration of skin barrier integrity and decreased secondary infection.
