Skin-sparing Mastectomy and Immediate TRAM Breast Reconstruction / 复旦学报（医学版）

Purpose　To introduce our experience about the skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction using transverse rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap(TRAM).　Methods　For early stage breast cancer,we preserved the breast skin,performed the subcutaneous glandular excision and axillary dissection,immediately reconstructed the breast using TRAM flap.　Results　9 patients were treated by skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate TRAM breast reconstruction.The morphology of reconstructed breasts was excellent.　Conclusions　The skin-sparing mastectomy and immediate TRAM breast reconstruction is safe and effective for treating early stage breast cancer.The incision is relative small and more aesthestic.
