Abstract
Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) has been recently implemented to improve cosmetic outcome after mastectomy, but it is rarely considered today after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NCH). Among 275 NSMs performed from January 2007 to January 2015, 186 cases, with a minimum follow-up of 12 months, were carried out for invasive or intraductal carcinoma. Patients were considered for NSM if there were no clinical and radiological evidence of invasion or close proximity (<1 cm) to the nipple-areola complex (NAC). We compared patients operated with NSM after NCH (Group I N = 51) with those who underwent primary surgery (Group II, N = 135). At a median follow-up of 35 months, 166/186 patients were alive and disease-free (89.7%). Three local relapses (1.6%) were observed, all in the skin flap outside the NAC in Group I: (6%; p < 0.01). No NAC recurrences have been recorded, in either group. Nipple loss due to full thickness necrosis or resection for insufficient margins was recorded in 31 cases (17%); 12 in Group I (24%) and 19 in Group II (14%) (P = 0.1). This event decreased by half in the second part of the study (21/93 vs 10/93) (P = 0.03). NSM after NCH is not associated with a statistically significant difference in terms of post-operati...Continue Reading
