Summary

To balance the oncological safety and cosmetic outcome is the basic principle of modern breast surgery. To preserve the nipple-areolar complex shows attractive cosmetic advantage but concerns regarding local recurrence make the oncological safety of nipple sparing mastectomy a controversial issue. Since the involvement of areolar pigmented skin by cancer is rare compared to that of nipple, we designed the current study to investigate the oncological safety and cosmetic outcome of Areola Sparing Mastectomy.

Conditions

  • Breast Neoplasms

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Areola Sparing Mastectomy

A small circular incision would be made to separate nipple from breast and an additional incision directly extended from nipple or located at other part of breast such as infra-mammary fold and subaxillary area would be made to remove the total mammary parenchyma. Routine implant based or flap base reconstruction would be performed subsequentially. Nipple reconstruction is optional.
