Popis: In order to decrease the psychological impact and the mutilating feeling of surgical treatments of the breast cancer when the mastectomy is indicated, authors described and propose the nipple sparing mastectomy (NSM). The only opposable criticism would be the increase of recurrence rate. The study of the recent literature allows us to make a inventory of fixtures concerning this evolution of the surgical practices whether on a technical, oncological, plastic or psychological plan. This technique is not validated in France and adjuvent therapies as the radiotherapy of the nipple are not validated yet. It seems that the NSM is a safe practice from the carcinologic point of view, while having a positive psychological impact in terms of disease and treatment acceptance. The technique seems possible after an information and selection of the patients and with a respect for technical rules (frozen section, peroperative evaluation of the nipple vitality).
