Abstrakt: Summary: Skin-sparing mastectomy (SSM) is a surgical technique that preserves as much of the breast skin as possible. Double asymmetric circular incision (DACI) is a novel immediate breast reconstruction technique for immediate prepectoral implant placement using a titanium-coated polypropylene mesh. The aim of this technique is to optimize the cosmetic benefits of smaller incisions, preserve breast anatomy, avoid breast deformities, and reduce the negative psychological impact on the patient without increasing local recurrence risk. DACI SSM uses a double circular incision: the external drawing contains the nipple-areola complex, while the inner circular skin island is used to provide the skin for the new areola. The authors performed DACI SSM in patients with tumors located within 2 cm of the nipple-areola complex, or in patients with multicentric lesions involving areolar tissue. Forty-six patients underwent DACI SSM at the authors' institutions between February of 2014 and July of 2019. Two patients developed hematoma, and one patient developed seroma. No implant loss was observed. Skin flap necrosis rate was 0%. The BREAST-Q patient-reported outcomes measure was routinely used at the authors' institutions and recorded good aesthetic outcomes and high patient satisfaction. This new technique appears to be safe and easily reproducible in patients with small to medium-sized breasts and with little to moderate ptosis (up to Regnault classification grade II).
Clinical Question/level of Evidence: Therapeutic, IV.
