Satisfaction of patients about reconstruction were collected using (Breast Reconstruction satisfaction questionnaire). 
 
Results: A total of 53 participants were considered. 58.4% had a university education or above, and only 32.1% had an income of 20000 SR were more satisfied about their recovery (P=0.029). Patients with higher income were more satisfied about their self-image (P=0.033).

Also, a relatively high percentage were not satisfied about the discussion with a plastic surgeon prior to the reconstruction.
