Doctor Helena Puonti has been able to create the “Sensing Breast” reconstruction technique by adding a microneurovascular approach to the traditional Free Muscle Sparing TRAM* method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Innovative Breast Reconstructive Surgery<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Since 2001, Helena Puonti<\/a> has been developing a ground-breaking breast reconstruction method that allows the restoration of a high degree of sensation to the breasts after free MS-TRAM reconstruction. Doctor Helena Puonti’s dissertation<\/a> was published in 2017 and the research included results on ca. 100 patients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shape of the newly reconstructed breast is important for the patient’s quality of life. But Helena Puonti realised that even more important is the fact that the breast also feels. This is how the idea of the Sensing Breast method was born. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sensing Breast method is a further developed version of MS-TRAM breast reconstruction method. The MS-TRAM* flap is the best transplant for breast reconstruction after mastectomy. It is soft and can naturally acquire the necessary shape. It is possible to reconstruct a round and, if necessary, large breast from it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

* MS-TRAM stands for Muscle-Sparing Transverse Rectus Abdominis Myocutaneous flap and microneurovascular describes the method of the flap connection. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sensing Breast Improving Day-to-Day Life<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As with other things in life, not always do we remember to appreciate the importance of something until we lose it. And the same goes for the sensitivity of your breasts. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are many examples, of how not having sensation on the breasts can affect one’s everyday life. Without sensation, a woman can not feel a hot coffee, tea, or soup spilled on her or feel the pain if the sun is burning and damaging the skin of the breast. Imagine holding a baby in your arms or hugging your kids, without being able to feel their loving embrace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Woman<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In 2017, just days before the publication of Doctor Puonti’s study, NY Times wrote an article on the subject<\/a> showcasing the problems women all around the world face after the traditional breast reconstruction and highlighting the need for the Sensing Breast method.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
