  • Patent number: 4338946
    Abstract: In surgical procedures of the mastectomy and partial mastectomy type, a serious aftermath problem exists because of the present cultural attitude of such surgery. Authorities recognize the emotional trauma that a woman goes through after having been subjected to a radical, or less than radical, mastectomy. The removal of a woman's breast can have traumatic consequences and during the post operative stage, a need for femininity and a need for some means of reducing trauma is necessary. With the herein disclosed invention, a cover pad or the like, of aesthetic and feminine design, is disclosed which aids the woman in the post operative stage in a most positive and productive manner, especially with regard to her dealings with herself and those of a personal nature with others close to the wearer of the inventive device.
