Improved Outcomes with Pedicled Nipple-sparing Mastectomies Using a New Surgical Delay: Mastectomy through Wise Incisions

imageSummary: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) is challenging in patients with significant ptosis and skin excess. We previously described the first use of a surgical delay (a supraareolar incision with undermining off the breast mound) to facilitate a second-stage pedicled NSM and reconstruction. Here, we present an improvement in our surgical delay technique—a total skin and NSM through Wise incisions. This technique obviates concerns regarding delays in cancer care and more aggressively delays the nipple, allowing for more reliable and extreme NAC transpositions. This strategy also delays the Wise pattern flaps resulting in better wound healing, which is critical in implant-based reconstructions.
