FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about Reconstructive Surgery for Cancer at Charak Hospital, Lucknow.

Immediate reconstruction (during the same operation as cancer removal) is often preferred as it reduces the number of surgeries and hospital admissions. However, if post-operative radiation is planned, delayed reconstruction may sometimes be recommended.
A free flap involves transferring tissue (skin, fat, muscle, bone) with its blood supply from one part of the body to another using microsurgical techniques to connect the blood vessels. Surgery typically takes 6–10 hours depending on complexity.
Breast reconstruction does not impair cancer surveillance. Regular clinical examination and contralateral mammography are continued. MRI may be used for implant-based reconstructions.
Yes. Breast reconstruction is available after mastectomy and may be done immediately (at the same time) or as a delayed procedure. Options include tissue expander-implant, TRAM flap, DIEP flap, and latissimus dorsi flap based on individual circumstances.
Recovery depends on the procedure. Skin grafting may allow return to activity within 2–3 weeks. Pedicled flap surgery typically requires 2–4 weeks. Free flap microsurgery may need 4–6 weeks for full recovery.
