Nowadays, oncological breast surgery has to be performed to maximize cosmetic results, and even mastectomies, when unavoidable, should conform to acceptable aesthetics. We investigated surgical approaches to skin-sparing mastectomies. Scar positioning and volume replacement were evaluated. We also discuss nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM), probably the most outstanding item in the current debate on breast shape preservation. We give suggestions for safe admission criteria and effective treatment.

Abstract
Nowadays, oncological breast surgery has to be performed to maximize cosmetic results, and even mastectomies, when unavoidable, should conform to acceptable aesthetics. We investigated surgical approaches to skin-sparing mastectomies. Scar positioning and volume replacement were evaluated. We also discuss nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM), probably the most outstanding item in the current debate on breast shape preservation. We give suggestions for safe admission criteria and effective treatment.File in questo prodotto:
