Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is a surgical procedure increasingly performed for breast cancer or risk reduction surgeries. The site of skin incision seems to affect not only cosmesis but also technical ease in operating and vascular viability of the nipple. We present a series of patients who underwent a modified vertical surgical approach for NSM, which resulted to be safe, reliable, and with good esthetic results.

Abstract

Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is a surgical procedure increasingly performed for breast cancer or risk reduction surgeries. The site of skin incision seems to affect not only cosmesis but also technical ease in operating and vascular viability of the nipple. We present a series of patients who underwent a modified vertical surgical approach for NSM, which resulted to be safe, reliable, and with good esthetic results.
