Interventions
Eligibility Criteria
patients elected for breast reconstruction surgery using tissue expander-implant technique
You may qualify if:
- all subjects were elected for a unilateral or bilateral breast reconstruction using tissue expander by the Oncoplastic Committee of the plastic surgery unit in Carmel Medical Center.
- all subjects agrees to enroll in research
You may not qualify if:
- subject is in a mental or physical condition that does not allow her to go through respiratory function tests.
- subject was found with a respiratory disfunction or disease in the first respiratory function tests.
