Abstract
This research investigates the effects of mastectomy on spinal and trunk
morphometry in pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women. By employing
advanced imaging techniques and comprehensive physical assessments, the
study evaluates changes in spinal curvature, trunk alignment, and overall
posture resulting from the surgical procedure. Comparative analysis of pre- and
post-operative data reveals distinct morphometric changes associated with
mastectomy. The study aims to provide valuable insights into the physical
implications of mastectomy and to inform the development of targeted post-
operative rehabilitation strategies. The results highlight the importance of
individualized care plans to address these morphometric changes and improve
patient outcomes.

Relevance:
Mastectomy is a critical treatment option for breast cancer, but its impact
on spinal and trunk morphology, particularly in pre-menopausal versus post-
menopausal women, is not well-documented. As both age groups may
experience different physiological changes post-surgery, understanding these
effects is essential for optimizing post-operative care. This study fills a
significant gap by comparing morphometric changes in different menopausal
stages, offering insights that can help tailor rehabilitation strategies to the
specific needs of each group. Given the high prevalence of breast cancer and the
variability in patient demographics, this research is crucial for enhancing clinical
practices and patient support.
Objective:
The objective of this study is to assess and compare the morphometric
changes in the spine and trunk of pre-menopausal and post-menopausal women

before and after mastectomy. The study seeks to identify significant differences
in spinal curvature and trunk alignment related to menopausal status and to
evaluate the implications for post-operative rehabilitation.
Materials and Methods:
The study included a sample of pre-menopausal and post-menopausal
women who underwent mastectomy. Pre-operative and post-operative
morphometric assessments were conducted using high-resolution imaging
techniques (e.g., MRI, X-ray) and clinical measurements to evaluate spinal
curvature (e.g., scoliosis, kyphosis) and trunk alignment. Measurements were
taken in both standing and sitting postures. Statistical analysis was performed to
compare changes in morphometric parameters between pre-menopausal and
post-menopausal women, with a focus on identifying any significant differences
related to menopausal status. Additionally, the effectiveness of post-operative
rehabilitation protocols was reviewed.
Results:
The study revealed distinct morphometric changes in spinal and trunk
parameters following mastectomy. Post-menopausal women exhibited more
pronounced increases in spinal curvature and trunk misalignment compared to
pre-menopausal women. Specifically, post-menopausal women showed greater
alterations in kyphosis and lordosis, while pre-menopausal women had
relatively milder changes. These findings suggest that menopausal status
significantly influences the impact of mastectomy on spinal and trunk
morphology, highlighting the need for tailored rehabilitation approaches.
Conclusion:
Mastectomy leads to significant changes in spinal and trunk morphometry, with
more pronounced effects observed in post-menopausal women compared to
pre-menopausal women. The study underscores the necessity of considering
menopausal status when developing post-operative rehabilitation plans.
Targeted physical therapy and tailored care are essential to address these
morphometric changes and improve patient recovery. Future research should
explore specific rehabilitation strategies and their effectiveness in managing
spinal and trunk alterations to enhance the quality of life for women undergoing
mastectomy.
