Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Robotic mastectomy with immediate reconstruction was introduced by Toesca et al. in 2015. Since then, several studies have reported the safety and feasibility of robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction. However, most studies were conducted by single centers and had small samples. Furthermore, there is a lack of studies comparing surgical and oncologic outcomes between robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy and conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy. For this reason, this study evaluates surgical and oncologic outcomes of robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate reconstruction using international multi-center data.

- label
- Robotic nipple sparing mastectomy group/RNSM
- description
- Cases or Patients who underwent robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction are enrolled in this arm. Robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy should be performed using robotic surgical systems. Robotic surgical systems include da Vinci S,Si, X, Xi, and SP systems. Axillary or lateral incisions are used for this procedure. Immediate reconstruction includes tissue expander insertion, direct-to-implant, latissimus dorsi flap, transverse abdominis rectus muscle flap, or deep inferior epigastric perforators flap. Cases with robotic mastectomy without immediate reconstruction are excluded. The estimated sample size for this arm is 300 cases.

- Procedure: Robotic nipple sparing mastectomy
- label
- Conventional nipple sparing mastectomy group/CNSM
- description
- Cases or Patients who underwent conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy and immediate reconstruction are enrolled in this arm. Conventional nipple-sparing mastectomy should not be performed using robotic or endoscopic surgical systems. Axillary or lateral incisions that are similar to incisions in robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy are not allowed. Other than axillary or lateral incisions can be performed for this procedure. Immediate reconstruction includes tissue expander insertion, direct-to-implant, latissimus dorsi flap, transverse abdominis rectus muscle flap, or deep inferior epigastric perforators flap. Cases with nipple-sparing mastectomy without immediate reconstruction are excluded. The estimated sample size for this arm is 300 cases.
