Excerpt

Mastectomy has come a long way since its introduction by Halstead at the turn of the twentieth century. What was once a disfiguring operation guided by a scorched-earth approach has evolved into an elegant dissection, often sparing the nipple–areolar complex, through a small incision hidden in the curvature of the breast. Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) has simultaneously decreased morbidity and increased patient satisfaction and cosmetic results without compromising oncologic outcomes.14
