Article Synopsis
- The introduction discusses challenges in achieving flat closure during oncologic mastectomy in obese patients and introduces the angel wing (AW) technique as a solution.
- A retrospective study at an academic center evaluated the safety of the AW technique by analyzing postoperative arm lymphedema (AL) and decreased range of motion (dROM) in patients who underwent mastectomy with and without this technique.
- Results showed no significant difference in the incidence of AL or dROM between the AW and non-AW groups, suggesting that the AW technique is a safe option for achieving effective surgical outcomes in obese patients postmastectomy.
