Abstract

The use of a custom-made silicone ectoprosthesis of the nipple-areola complex is presented. It is suggested, after completion of breast mound reconstruction, for those women who cannot undergo or refuse to undergo any further surgical procedure, or else for the interim until the final reconstruction is performed. It is convenient to use and the aesthetic appearance is pleasing.
