Summary

In this feasibility study, 60 women undergoing reconstruction will be randomly allocated to receive biological or synthetic mesh and followed for 6 months. The findings will tell us if patients and surgeons are comfortable with not being able to choose which mesh is used for the operation. In the larger surgical study, the investigators plan to measure patients' satisfaction with the reconstruction, patients' quality of life, complications from the operation and costs over 5 years.
