METHOD FOR NIPPLE RECONSTRUCTION FOLLOWING SUBCUTANEOUS MASTECTOMY IN BREAST CANCER PATIENTS

摘要

A method for nipple reconstruction following subcutaneous mastectomy in breast cancer patients comprises the cuts limiting cross-shaped site that is separated and elevated at its base followed by approaching the edges of donor wound in the central direction. The skin flaps between the cross-shaped septa are dissected and the wounds between them are sewed with the interrupted sutures. The nipple of the sufficient projection is generated allowing for its reposition in the required direction.
