Nipple-sparing mastectomy in association with intra operative radiotherapy (ELIOT): a new type of mastectomy for breast cancer treatment

AbstractNipple sparing mastectomy has been popularized in the modern era of breast cancer treatment due to its touted advantages with regard to resultant body image and reconstructive outcome. Implant-based techniques remain the most prevalent means of breast reconstruction. Special considerations regarding patient selection and technique are reviewed for implant reconstruction in the setting of mastectomy with nipple preservation. Applications for prepectoral and direct-to-implant reconstruction are discussed and published outcomes are summarized.

Abstract: Today, in spite of significant advances in cancer treatment has been made, however, breast cancer is still remains as one of the main health problem and considered as a top biomedical investigation urgency. The present study reviewed the common conventional chemotherapy agents and also some alternative and complementary approaches such as oncolytic virotherapy, bacteriotherapy, nanotherapy, immunotherapy, and natural products which are recommended for breast cancer treatment. In addition to current surgery approaches such as mastectomy, in recent years a number of novel techniques such as robotic mastectomies, nipple-sparing mastectomy, skin-sparing mastectomy, day-case mastectomy were used in breast cancer surgery. In this review, we summarize new insights risk factors, surgical and non-surgical treatments for breast cancer.

Nipple Sparing

Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) has gained increasing popularity as an option for treatment over the typical skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM). Proper patient selection is of utmost importance, and, in recent years, surgeons have expanded their eligibility criteria for NSM. While no standard operative technique exists, various incision locations have proven advantageous depending on patient and oncologic characteristics. Consideration of the appropriate reconstructive method must be included, and potential nipple necrosis and locoregional recurrence require diligent postoperative assessment. Enhanced coordination among all members of the breast cancer treatment team, including the patient, is essential to ensure successful treatment and recovery.
