Demand for nipple- and skin- sparing mastectomy (NSM/SSM) with immediate breast reconstruction (BR) has increased at the same time as indications post-mastectomy radiation therapy (PMRT) have broadened. The aim of Oncoplastic Breast Consortium initiative was to address relevant questions arising this clinically challenging scenario.A large global panel oncologic, oncoplastic reconstructive surgeons, patient advocates oncologists developed recommendations clinical practice in an iterative...
Good clinical outcome after digital nerve repair is highly relevant for proper hand function and has a significant socioeconomic impact. However, level of evidence competing surgical techniques low. The aim to summarize compare the outcomes with different methods (end-to-end end-to-side coaptations, grafts, artificial conduit-, vein-, muscle, muscle-in-vein reconstructions, replantations) provide an aid choosing individual technique reconstruction create reference values standard...
The treatment of wounds using the body’s own resources is a promising approach to support physiological regenerative process. To advance this concept, we evaluated effect nanofat (NF) on wound healing. For purpose, full-thickness skin defects were created in dorsal skinfold chambers wild-type mice. These filled with NF generated from inguinal subcutaneous adipose tissue green fluorescent protein (GFP)+ donor mice, which was stabilized platelet-rich plasma (PRP). Empty and solely PRP served...
Abstract Introduction The rapid spread of COVID-19 across the globe is forcing surgical oncologists to change their daily practice. We sought evaluate how breast surgeons are adapting activity limit viral and spare hospital resources. Methods A panel 12 from most affected regions world convened a virtual meeting on April 7, 2020, discuss changes in local practice during pandemic. Similarly, Web-based poll based was created among several countries. Results showed that distinct countries were...
Abstract Introduction Recent data suggest that margins ≥2 mm after breast-conserving surgery may improve local control in invasive breast cancer (BC). By allowing large resection volumes, oncoplastic (OBCII; Clough level II/Tübingen 5-6) achieve better than conventional conserving (BCS; Tübingen 1-2) or conservation with low volumes (OBCI; I/Tübingen 3-4). Methods Data from consecutive high-risk BC patients treated 15 centers the Oncoplastic Breast Consortium (OPBC) network, between January...
Background/Objectives: Combining autologous fat grafting with implant placement is meant to improve the quality of implant-based breast reconstruction. The present study explores concept multi-stage composite reconstruction repeated sessions increase mastectomy flap thickness and provide better pre-pectoral coverage. Methods: Twenty-five consecutive patients underwent bilateral expander-to-implant reverse expansion from August 2020 April 2024. Subcutaneous was evaluated in predefined regions...
BACKGROUND: Patients with symptomatic breast hypertrophy typically suffer from chronic back pain, recurrent skin irritation at the inframammary fold and/or low self-esteem resulting in impaired quality of life. Reduction mammaplasty has been shown to effectively treat high patient satisfaction. Despite obvious benefits, reimbursement requests for reduction are initially often refused by patient’s health insurance company, thereby frequently additional examinations and eventually extra...
Introduction Up to one-fifth of breast cancer survivors will develop chronic cancer-related lymphoedema (BCRL). To date, complex physical decongestion therapy (CDT) is the gold standard treatment. However, it mainly symptomatic and often ineffective in preventing BCRL progression. Lymphovenous anastomosis (LVA) vascularised lymph node transfer (VLNT) are microsurgical techniques that aim restore lymphatic drainage. This international randomised trial aims evaluate advantages interventions...
