Amaç: Fantom meme sendromu görülme sıklığının ve klinik özelliklerinin belirlenmesidir. 

Yöntem: Medline Complete, Pubmed, Science Direct, EBSCO veri tabanları taranarak 2004-2014yılları arasındaki toplam 11 yayın incelemeye dahil edildi. 

Bulgular: İncelenen 11 çalışmada toplam 627 hastaya mastektomi uygulandığı, hastaların 49’unda(%7.8) fantom meme sendromu, 413’ünde(%65.8) fantom meme hissi, 42’sinde(%6.7)  ise fantom meme ağrısı olduğu belirlenmiştir.

Sonuç: Fantom meme sendromunun değerlendirilmesinde belirli standartların oluşturulmasına, tedavisi ve bakımına yönelik profesyonel bilgilendirilmelerin yapılarak farkındalığın artırılmasına ve daha kapsamlı randomize kontrollü çalışmalara gereksinim vardır.

Findings:In the samples of these 11 studies; there were 627 patients who had mastectomy and 7.8% of them (49 patients) were diagnosed with phantom breast syndrome, 65.8% (413 patients) had phantom breast sensation and 6.7% (42 patients) had phantom breast pain.
