Abstrakt:	Background: Various techniques for management of the contralateral breast exist in patients with unilateral breast cancer, including contralateral prophylactic mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction (PMIBR), and symmetrization techniques including augmentation, reduction, or mastopexy. The purpose of this prospective cohort study was to evaluate and compare complications and patient-reported satisfaction of patients with contralateral PMIBR versus having symmetrization procedures. Methods: A 7-year, single-institution, prospectively maintained database was reviewed. Patient-reported BREAST-Q scores were obtained at baseline, 3 months, and 12 months prospectively. Postoperative complications, oncologic outcomes, and BREAST-Q scores were compared. Results: A total of 249 patients were included, 93 (37%) of whom underwent contralateral PMIBR and 156 (63%) of whom underwent contralateral symmetrization. The patients who underwent PMIBR were younger and had less comorbidities compared with patients with symmetrization. Rates of major and minor complications were similar, apart from higher rates of minor wound dehiscence in the PMIBR group. When comparing mean change at 12-month follow-up to preoperative results, there was a significant decrease in physical well-being of the chest in the symmetrization compared with the PMIBR group (2.94 versus -5.69; P = 0.042). There were no significant differences in mean breast satisfaction and psychosocial well-being, and nonsignificant decreases in sexual well-being between groups. Conclusions: Patients with unilateral breast cancer who underwent immediate contralateral breast management, with either contralateral PMIBR or symmetrization techniques, demonstrated similar profiles of major complications and good overall satisfaction except for one physical well-being domain. Management of the contralateral breast with symmetrization may provide similar outcomes compared with PMIBR, which often is considered not necessary in patients without specific indications.
