Oncological safety and complication risks of mastectomy with or without breast reconstruction: A Bayesian analysis

: Currently, breast cancer patients undergoing mastectomy (MA) have three surgical options: mastectomy only and reconstruction at the time of mastectomy ( “immediate”, IBR) or at a later time (“delayed”, DBR). To assess the oncological safety and complication risks associated with different surgical choices, a systematic review with Bayesian network analysis was conducted.
