The investigators therefore aim to determine whether the type of mastectomy (preventive in a high-risk patient or therapeutic in a patient with a history of cancer), as well as the timing (immediate or delayed) and type of breast reconstruction, influence the quality of life and satisfaction of patients who have undergone bilateral mastectomy. The goal of this observational study is thus to measure and compare the quality of life of patients who have undergone bilateral mastectomy using the BREAST-Q questionnaire.

Measure of the BREAST Q Questionnaire
Composite score on the standardized BREAST-Q questionnaire for the following domains: psychosocial well-being, sexual well-being, physical well-being, and breast satisfaction, starting at 3 months postoperatively. A conversion table allows for conversion of the raw scale summed score into a score from 0 (worst) to 100 (best). Higher scores reflect a better outcome.
Time frame: 3 months post operatively
