Currently, there are many options for breast reconstruction surgery, but the impact of the different techniques on body posture has not been widely studied. One study demonstrated that immediate breast reconstruction with a Beker\u201025 prosthesis could help to preserve body posture after mastectomy; however, there is no evidence regarding the effect of surgery on the body posture of women after breast reconstruction when using autologous tissue.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Purpose<\/jats:title><jats:p>The purpose of this paper is to compare the body postures of women who underwent immediate breast reconstruction using an abdominal flap with those of women who underwent mastectomy alone.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Design<\/jats:title><jats:p>This is a cross\u2010sectional study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Subjects<\/jats:title><jats:p>Seventy\u2010six women diagnosed with breast cancer underwent mastectomy, between 1 and 5\u2009years after the diagnosis, are the participants of the study. Two groups were defined: women who underwent mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200938) and women who underwent mastectomy alone (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u200938).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Procedure<\/jats:title><jats:p>To assess body posture, specific anatomical points for obtaining photographs were located and marked in anterior, posterior and right\u2010side and left\u2010side views. The photographs were analysed using Postural Analysis Software\/Software de An\u00e1lise Postural (PAS\/SAPO).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>In the left lateral view, there was a significant difference in the vertical alignment of the trunk (4.2 vs 3.1; <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u20090.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups for the variables in the anterior, posterior or right\u2010side views.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Women who underwent mastectomy alone, compared with women who underwent immediate breast reconstruction with abdominal flaps, showed differences in the vertical alignment of the trunk, with greater asymmetry between the acromion and greater trochanter, which can mean trunk rotation. No significant differences were found between the two groups in the alignment of the head, shoulders, scapula, or pelvis.
