With availability of genetic testing and development of statistical models for risk stratification, more women are being identified as having increased risk for breast cancer. A number of risk-reducing treatment options with varying efficacy exist for them, including frequent surveillance, chemoprevention, prophylactic salpingo-oophorectomy (PSO), and ...

Journal of the American College of Surgeons, 2000
The Society of Surgical Oncology has developed a position statement54 that lists conditions warranting consideration of prophylactic mastectomy (Table 4). It must be stressed that there are no absolute indications for prophylactic mastectomy. The data are limited about the efficacy of prophylactic mastectomy in humans, but recent studies suggest that ...

Ambulatory mastectomy has been a topic of heated political debate with little analysis of clinical data.Based on extensive satisfaction surveys, an ideal surgical treatment experience was developed that decreased nausea, increased preoperative education, and reduced perioperative narcotic usage.

AbstractLocal‐regional relapse after breast‐conserving surgery and radiation therapy is operable and not associated with concurrent distant metastases in most cases. Salvage mastectomy results in local‐regional control for most patients. The extent of the surgery relates to the extent of the local‐regional recurrence and does not carry an increased ...

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1978
Subcutaneous mastectomy is a compromise surgical procedure for the precancerous breast. We do not think that total mastectomy is indicated in such patients. The effect of the small cuff of tissue beneath the areola more than compensates for the minimal additional risk by leaving a more attractive and eminently more acceptable breast.

Radical Mastectomy and Extended Radical Mastectomy
Postgraduate Medicine, 1964Abandonment of the classic radical mastectomy is not warranted at present. Excision of the internal mammary nodes can be defended in cases in which the cancer is situated in the medial or central part of the breast, with the recognition that it is experimental.

Subcutaneous Mastectomy v Prophylactic Mastectomy

The subject of prophylactic mastectomy is receiving a lot of attention. However, the term subcutaneous mastectomy should not be used interchangeably with the term prophylactic mastectomy . The problem comes up as to who should have a prophylactic

Prophylactic Bilateral Mastectomy and Contralateral Prophylactic Mastectomy

Bilateral prophylactic mastectomy for women at increased risk of developing breast cancer and contralateral prophylactic mastectomy for those with unilateral ...

Simple mastectomy is an operation frequently attempted but seldom accomplished. Bold as this declaration may seem, it is true. Theoretically the term "mastectomy" indicates complete excision of the mammary gland and does not apply to incomplete removal, partial resection or subtotal ablation.
