Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of appliances for breast cancer patients after operation, and particularly relates to a pressure corset for patients after latissimus dorsi breast reconstruction. Background Art

[0002] Breast cancer is one of the most common malignant tumors in women at present. Surgical treatment is the preferred treatment method for breast cancer patients. However, traditional radical mastectomy will cause breast loss and local deformity in patients, affecting the aesthetic appearance of the patients and seriously affecting the quality of life of the patients. With the gradual improvement of the comprehensive treatment effect of breast cancer, the survival time of breast cancer patients has been significantly extended. Breast reconstruction has become one of the best choices for breast cancer patients. On the basis of not affecting the safety of the tumor, the breast shape is reshaped to enable the patients to regain their confidence in life. There are various breast reconstruction methods, and latissimus dorsi breast reconstruction is a common one. During the operation, the axilla and the subcutaneous area of the scapular region are fully dissected, and the donor-site myocutaneous flap is placed in front of the chest through the subcutaneous tunnel in the axilla. After the operation, it is often necessary to apply pressure dressing and shape the breast. However, due to the lack of skin flap in the back surgical area, it is easy for the surgical area to not fit tightly, resulting in complications such as poor healing of the surgical area and subcutaneous effusion. At the same time, in the area of the breast reconstructed with the skin flap, fixation and shaping are very important. It is necessary to neither affect the blood circulation of the surgical area and the nipple to avoid necrosis of the skin flap and the nipple, nor need to fix and shape according to the breast shape to avoid skin flap deviation and affect the surgical effect. At the same time, it is also necessary to cooperate with manual massage to promote the blood circulation of the reconstructed breast, promote wound healing, and promote scar softening and nerve recovery in the later stage to achieve the best rehabilitation effect.

[0003] At present, for patients after breast cancer reconstruction, clinicians mainly use a front-fastening ordinary bra + cotton pads or towels for filling, pressing, and fixing and shaping to meet the needs of back pressing and breast shaping for patients after breast cancer reconstruction. However, there are a series of disadvantages: 1. After the doctor changes the dressing, the patient still needs someone to assist in placing the pressure cotton pads or towels on the back before putting on the corset and cannot wear and adjust it by himself / herself; 2. With the change of the patient's body position, the cotton pads at the pressing position are easy to shift or fall off, and the effect of filling, pressing, fixing, and shaping is greatly reduced, which is likely to cause adverse effects such as poor healing of the back surgical area, effusion, outward expansion or sagging of the reconstructed breast; 3. The person assisting the patient to wear the corset fills the cotton pads only based on experience, and the pressing position is prone to deviation, and the amount of filled cotton pads is uneven, resulting in uneven stress on the back and the reconstructed breast, affecting the comfort of the patient and the pressing and shaping effect. If the pressing force is too large, it will also cause poor blood flow in the reconstructed skin flap or nipple, and even necrosis, affecting the success or failure of the operation; 4. In the first 3 days after breast cancer reconstruction, the patient will have varying degrees of edema, and the ordinary bra fails to adjust the size in time to meet the comfort needs of both breasts.
