The Batwing Mastopexy in Immediate Implant-Based Breast Reconstruction: An Aesthetic Enhancement for Patients with Cancer.

Background: Historically, many patients with breast ptosis have been excluded from nipple-sparing mastectomies. By performing mastopexy at the time of immediate reconstruction, more patients with breast ptosis can be considered for nipple-sparing mastectomies. The authors review their experience of simultaneous batwing mastopexy performed at the time of immediate implant-based reconstruction.
