Residual breast tissue after robot-assisted nipple sparing mastectomy

Breast, 2021
Introduction: While the long-term oncologic safety of robot-assisted nipple sparing mastectomy (RNSM) remains to be elucidated, histologically detected residual breast tissue (RBT) can be a surrogate for oncologically sound mastectomy.

Evolving Trends in Postmastectomy Breast Reconstruction With Autologous Tissues: A Large‐Scale, 24‐Year Retrospective Study in China

Psychosocial and Sexual Well‐Being Following Nipple‐Sparing Mastectomy and Reconstruction

The Breast Journal, 2016
Nipple‐sparing mastectomy (NSM) is considered an oncologically safe option for select patients. As many patients are candidates for nipple‐sparing or skin‐sparing mastectomy (SSM), reliable patient‐reported outcome data are crucial for decision‐making ...

High‐Resolution Ultrasound of Clinically Relevant Sensory Nerves of the Arm and the Forearm

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Technological advancements in ultrasound systems, particularly the development of high‐ and ultra‐high‐frequency transducers, now allow for the detailed evaluation of sub‐millimetric sensory nerves in the upper limb, extending to their distal branches. This provides invaluable insights in patients with suspected neuropathies.
