Abstract
Methods The study will be conducted within a phenomenological and hermeneutical frame of reference. Data will be gathered through qualitative interviews with 12 women with mastectomies. Analyses and interpretation will follow Steinar Kvales levels of interpretation.
Objectives The aim is to explore perceived body image and sexuality after having had mastectomy in the acute phase. Further, the aim is to focus on body image and sexuality as determinants for whether women choose reconstruction or not. Insight into women's perceived body image and sexuality is valuable to provide better quality nursing care to women treated with mastectomy and reconstruction.
Results: It is expected that interviews, analysis and interpretation will be conducted in 2010.The results are expected to be edited and published in the beginning of 2011.
