Resumen
Breast cancer is one of the most common and deadly cancers
among women worldwide. The treatment of breast cancer often
involves mastectomy, which can cause physical and
psychological distress to the patients, affecting their quality of life
and self-esteem [1]. Therefore, the surgical intervention of breast
cancer should not include only the removal of a tumor, but also
psychological support by restoring the natural shape of the breast
and achieving proper aesthetic for each patient. Conventional
breast reconstruction techniques have several limitations, such as
donor site morbidity, implant failure, infection, and poor
cosmetic outcome. Moreover, breast cancer patients often require
systemic chemotherapy or hormone therapy after surgery, which
can cause severe side effects and complications.
In this article, it is proposed a novel implant based 3d printed
structure for breast reconstruction and systematic drug delivery.
The implant consists of a biodegradable ...
