Breast Reconstruction with TiLoop Bra Mesh

This study is looking at two ways to do breast reconstruction after a mastectomy (surgery to remove breast tissue) for breast cancer. One method uses a special mesh called TiLoop Bra along with a tissue expander (a temporary implant that stretches the skin). The other method uses only the tissue expander. Researchers want to see if using the TiLoop Bra mesh can lead to fewer complications, help the expander work better, and result in a nicer appearance. You might be able to join if you are a woman between 18 and 70 years old with breast cancer, good overall health, and no spread of cancer. The study aims to enroll 300 participants. The current status of the study is unclear.
