Now choice of women focus on quality of life, psychosocial results and individual response following breast carcinoma surgery. The involved women in this study aged between 30:85 years [median 57.5] with newly diagnosed breast carcinoma who underwent BCS [n=25]. Mastectomy alone [n=15], Mastectomy with reconstruction [n=10]. The quality of life was assessed after diagnosis [baseline] and at 1,3,6,12,18 and 24 months after baseline by using mischel uncertainly in illness scale [MUIS], profile for mood states [POTIS] and functional assessment of cancer therapy for breast cancer [FACT-B] Women who underwent mastectomy with reconstruction had greater mood disturbance and poorer well being than women who had mastectomy alone, women who underwent BCS had more mood disturbances than women who had mastectomy alone. As regarding well being BCS and mastectomy did not differ significantly. With regard quality of life is not better in women with BCS or mastectomy with reconstruction than in women with mastectomy alone. Mastectomy with reconstruction is associated with greater mood disturbance and poorer well being
