by St Vincent's Private Hospital East Melbourne | 2 years ago

Sisters Kristen McHugh and Tracy Brown were diagnosed with breast cancer 10 years apart. Kristen’s diagnosis came first, in 2007. She completed implant reconstruction in 2008. Over the years, the implant reconstruction failed, ultimately leading to implant removal and a free-flap reconstruction in 2018. Kristen most recently had revision surgery in 2019.
