METHOD FOR SETTING IMPLANTS IN SUBCUTANEOUS MASTECTOMY

摘要

A method for setting the implants in the subcutaneous mastectomy comprises the cut of the skin, the separation of the skin flaps of the breast, the resection of the breast tissue with cancer as one piece with the underlying fascia of the greater pectoral muscle and the fat with the regional lymph nodes, the generation of the subpectoral pocket. Then the implant is placed into the subpectoral pocket and the plastic reconstruction follows. The lower skin flap is deepidermized and covered by the upper flap generating the duplicature of the lower flap.
