JIMENEZ-MUNOZ-LEDO, Gustavo; DE LEON-JASSO, Adrián; PALACIOS-JUAREZ, Julio  y  LOPEZ-INFANTE, Raúl. Breast reconstruction campaigns in Guanajuato, México. Cir. plást. iberolatinoam. [online]. 2018, vol.44, n.4, pp.449-453.  Epub 08-Feb-2021. ISSN 1989-2055.  https://dx.doi.org/10.4321/s0376-78922018000400018.

Breast reconstruction is currently considered an integral part of the treatment of breast cancer, since it gives quality of life, improves the body image of women and thus improves their way of perceiving their disease.

In México, breast cancer occupies the first place in malignant neoplasms in women and only one third of those who suffer from it are reconstructed. Unfortunately the health institutions of the country, as well as the material and human resources in the public sector, are insufficient to cover the process of mammary reconstruction in this population, so that after the oncological treatment, it is very common to find patients not reconstructed in our region. For this reason, we decided to create an altruistic organization that, through the creation of annual campaigns, manages to support women from Guanajuato who do not have the opportunity to receive a complete treatment after breast cancer.

Palabras clave : Breast reconstruction; Breast reconstruction campaign.
