Switching to Tumescent Dissection in Mastectomy
Conclusion: TUM yields comparable results with decreased overall complication rates compared to electrocautery dissection. Electrocautery thermal effect may account for skin-related complications. Additionally, tumescent mastectomies have shorter length of operative time which could reduce the risk...

| description | Conclusion: TUM yields comparable results with decreased overall complication rates compared to electrocautery dissection. Electrocautery thermal effect may account for skin-related complications. Additionally, tumescent mastectomies have shorter length of operative time which could reduce the risk of complications associated with increased time under general anesthesia. |
