This study examined the effects of breast reconstruction surgery on body image and sexuality satisfaction of breast cancer patients. Participants included 30 patients with breast cancer from a medical center of the Northern Taiwan. A total of 15 patients enrolled in the experimental group received breast reconstruction surgery after total mastectomy, while 15 patients enrolled in the control group did not received breast reconstruction surgery after total mastectomy. Participant patients completed a self-administered questionnaire before and after the surgery. The results indicated that breast reconstruction surgery had positive effect on maintaining patients’ body image, while breast reconstruction surgery had no significant effect on patients’ sexuality satisfaction. It is suggested that breast reconstruction treatment options should be included in breast cancer patients’ treatment plan to restore their body image.
