Patient factors associated with cancer worry post-breast reconstruction: a cross-sectional study

The BREAST-Q Breast Cancer module is a patient reported outcome measure for women with a breast cancer diagnosis. Our research team developed and validated a novel BREAST-Q scale for this module that measures quality of life outcomes specific to cancer worry. The aim of this study was to investigate patient breast reconstruction factors that are associated with worse scores on the new BREAST-Q Cancer Worry scale.
