Objective:To investigate the relationship between satisfaction and quality of life of patients with breast reconstruction after mastectomy, and analyze the influencing factors of satisfaction.Methods:In this study, 157 female breast reconstruction patients who were treated in Hunan Cancer Hospital from January 2016 to June 2019 were selected as the object of this study. The BRECON-31 and QLQ-BR23 were used to assess satisfaction and quality of life respectively, and the clinical and demographic data were collected, Pearson correlation test was applied to analyze the correlation between satisfaction and quality of life, univariate analysis and multiple linear regression analysis were performed to investigate the influence factors of satisfaction.Results:A total of 157 patients, whose age was (41.8±8.3) years and median follow-up time was 11 months were included and 147 valid questionnaires were collected. The satisfaction score was 74.44±6.29, which meant patients with breast reconstruction after mastectomy had high satisfaction. There was a significant correlation between intimacy and body image ( r=-0.183, P=0.043), sexual function ( r=0.201, P=0.026), sexual interest ( r=0.204, P=0.029), breast symptoms ( r=-0.247, P=0.006) and arm symptoms ( r=-0.246, P=0.006) in patients with breast reconstruction after mastectomy, the patient’s self-awareness was significantly influenced by factors such as body shape ( r=-0.228, P=0.006), sexual function ( r=-0.293, P<0.001), sexual interest ( r=-0.258, P=0.003), breast symptoms ( r=-0.183, P=0.029), hair loss-induced annoyance ( r=-0.187, P=0.027). The result of univariate analysis showed that age ( P=0.047), tumor stage ( P=0.004), reconstruction method ( P<0.001), chemoradiotherapy ( P=0.043) were the influencing factors of total satisfaction score, multiple linear regression result showed that the reconstruction method ( P<0.001) was an independent influence factor of satisfaction score. The total satisfaction score of patients with autologous tissue reconstruction (75.99±5.94) was better than that of patients with autologous tissue combined prosthesis (71.08±4.99) and patients with simple prosthesis implantation (70.81±8.54). Conclusions:Mutual impact was identified for life quality and satisfaction among patients with breast reconstruction after mastectomy. In addition, age, tumor stage, reconstruction method and chemoradiotherapy are the influence factor of satisfaction. Among them, the reconstruction method is independent influence factor, and the breast reconstruction with autologous tissue is a better choice.

Objective: To explore the clinical application of the transverse upper gracilis flap (TUG) in breast reconstruction for breast cancer patients. Methods: From March 2010 to September 2016, 15 breast cancer patients received radical or modified radical mastectomy in Hunan Cancer Hospital, 8 cases of breast cancer were in stage Ⅰ and 7 cases was in stage Ⅱ. The age of patients ranged from 37 to 62 years old, (39.5±4.7) years. The TUG flap was used to reconstruct breast at the same time.The donor leg is placed in frog-leg position. Free TUG flap was harvested with gracilis muscular branch of profunda artery as pedicle. To keep tight connection between skin paddle and gracilis muscle, the perforators are not visualized. The flap was transferred to reconstruct breast, and the donor site was directly closed. Results: Mean operative time of unilateral reconstruction was 5 hours and (35± 44) minutes (with the range from 4 hours and 17 minutes to 6 hours and 5 minutes). Mean ischemia time was (52± 9 )minutes (with the range from 40 minutes to 1 hour and 16 minutes). The length of flap was (27.1±0.1) cm. The width of flap was (7.8±0.5) cm. The thickness of flap was (3.4±0.2) cm. The length of pedicle was( 6.8±0.5) cm.The average weight of flap was 350 g (ranged from 285 g to 525 g). All TUG flaps were survived. The shape, texture and elasticity of all reconstructed breasts were satisfactory, and there is no flap contracture deformation happened. Only linear scar left in the donor sites, without sacrifice of the function of thighs. All 15 patients were followed for 9-36 months (16.5 months on average). No local recurrence happened. Conclusion TUG flap can be safely harvested. It is reliable, with good texture. It is an alternative method for breast reconstruction after radical or modified radical mastectomy.
