Abstract
AbstractThis chapter tells the story of how a Norwegian campaign with the noble cause of offering breast reconstruction to breast cancer treated patients, ended up reconstructing trouble both within and outside of this patient group. Some former cancer patients ended up having not only their breast but also their cancer reconstructed. Furthermore, the resource used by the reconstruction campaign also had as a side-effect a certain resurgence of orofacial cleft as a public health issue as the plastic surgeons were instructed to prioritise breast reconstruction.
