Modified Radical Mastectomy

1994
The term modified radical mastectomy has come to mean removal of the breast together with a variable number of axillary lymph nodes. Some surgeons take a few outer lymph nodes, some do a complete excision of the lateral third of the axillary nodes using the pectoralis minor muscle as the upper boundary for their dissection, some elevate the pectoralis ...

Early discharge after modified radical mastectomy

The American Journal of Surgery, 1986
Thirty-nine patients underwent modified radical mastectomy and were discharged with their suction drains and sutures in place after a mean postoperative stay of 4.7 days. Drains and sutures were removed at the first office visit. There were no infections, and late seromas developed in only 21 percent of the patients.

Modified radical mastectomy using harmonic scalpel

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2000
Modified radical mastectomy (MRM) remains the most commonly performed surgery for breast cancer today. Conventional surgery using scalpel and electrocautery is associated with moderate blood loss and morbidity in the form of haematoma, flap necrosis, prolonged axillary drainage, and seroma.

Eliminating the dog-ear in modified radical mastectomy

The American Journal of Surgery, 1988
Inadequate attention has been paid to optimal closure of the postmastectomy incision in patients not desirous of breast reconstruction. Herein, we describe the use of a basic plastic surgical technique at the time of mastectomy to eliminate the dog-ear deformity at the axillary end of the incision.

Comparison of postoperative complications following radical and modified radical mastectomy

World Journal of Surgery, 1977
AbstractA retrospective study was carried out by reviewing the files of 100 patients who had undergone radical mastectomy and 100 patients who had undergone modified radical mastectomy from 1966 to 1975 for the purpose of comparing early and late complications. In each group, 80 patients were involved in long‐term follow‐up.

Glandular Excision in Total Glandular Mastectomy and Modified Radical Mastectomy: A Comparison

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 1991
Total glandular mastectomy and modified radical mastectomy were compared for the amount of breast tissue remaining after surgery. Multiple biopsies were taken from the anterior chest walls of women following total glandular mastectomy (N = 27) and modified radical mastectomy (N = 28) to try to detect any residual glandular tissue.

The technique of modified radical mastectomy.

Surgery, gynecology & obstetrics, 1977
The functional and cosmetic results of this modified radical mastectomy are superior to those achieved by standard radical mastectomy. The incidence of lymphedema of the ipsilateral arm, which is one of the feared complications from a standard radical mastectomy, appears to be decidedly less.
