Mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction is a viable option for phyllodes tumors, offering acceptable cosmetic outcomes. Skin-sparing mastectomy techniques yielded superior aesthetic results in this patient series.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Plastic Surgery
  • Breast Surgery

Background:

  • Phyllodes tumors are rare breast neoplasms.
  • Mastectomy is a common surgical approach, particularly for large tumors.
  • Limited data exists on breast reconstruction following mastectomy for phyllodes tumors.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the safety and efficacy of immediate breast reconstruction after mastectomy for phyllodes tumors.
  • To assess the oncologic outcomes and cosmetic results of this combined approach.

Main Methods:

  • A retrospective review of 7 patients with phyllodes tumors who underwent mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction.
  • Mastectomy types included conventional (4 patients) and skin-sparing (3 patients).
  • Reconstruction methods involved latissimus dorsi (LD) flaps (4 patients) and transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flaps (3 patients).

Endoscopic Bilateral Nipple-sparing Mastectomy via a Single Axillary Incision with Immediate Pre-pectoral Implant-based Breast Reconstruction

Published on: May 17, 2024

Main Results:

  • Mean follow-up was 40.1 months.
  • One patient experienced a recurrence 1 year post-surgery, successfully treated with excision and radiotherapy.
  • All patients reported acceptable cosmetic results, with skin-sparing mastectomy associated with better outcomes.

Conclusions:

  • Immediate breast reconstruction following mastectomy for phyllodes tumors is feasible.
  • Skin-sparing mastectomy combined with reconstruction offers favorable cosmetic results.
  • This approach provides a safe and effective treatment option for selected patients with phyllodes tumors.
