Description
Summary:Abstract Objectives To evaluate central quadrantectomy and nipple resection with areola preservation (CQ-NR-AP) as a new reconstructive oncoplastic technique Versus Grisotti flap mammoplasty (GFM) in central malignant tumors of the breast extending to the nipple, in terms of time procedures, breast symmetry, patient satisfaction, postoperative complications, and local recurrence. Patients and methods The current study is a single-blind, single-center, randomized, controlled trial that was performed between May 2018 and May 2023 in the breast surgery unit of University Hospitals. This trial involved 40 individuals who had central breast lesions that extended to the nipple and were monitored for two years following surgery. Results As regards the mean intra-operative time in minutes, in the group (I) was 80.1 with a standard deviation of ± 13.9, and ingroup (II) was 138.9 with a standard deviation of ± 14.02 (p = 0.001). The seroma was detected in zero cases in group (I) and 2(10%) cases in group II (p = 0.487) and those two cases were managed by aspiration only. Regarding, the wound infection was found in one case (5%) in group (I) and 3(15%) cases in group II (p = 0.605). Regarding patient satisfaction and breast, symmetry was much better in the group (I). Conclusion The safety and ease of central quadrantectomy and nipple resection with areola preservation were demonstrated in a two-year follow-up, with a lower incidence of complications compared to the Grisotti flap mammoplasty technique. Furthermore, this approach was associated with higher patient satisfaction, which is a significant achievement in the management of centrally located breast tumors.
