Sarday, M ay 6, 2017 CONCLUSION: The SFTS is a valid and simple instrument for measuring changes in quality of life in transgender men undergoing chest reconstruction. Although this ongoing evaluation is based on a small sample size thus far, pertinent quality of life measures can be expected to help better establish the many benefits of GAS and influence public policy to broaden access to GAS. The external validity of the SFTS needs to be established with future multicenter studies. Further modules applicable to facial, chest, and urogenital surgery for both transgender men and women are undergoing revision and validation
