Background: The use of robotic-assisted nipple-sparing mastectomy (R-NSM) with immediate direct-to-implant (DTI) reconstruction in treatment of breast cancer has been a controversial topic. The adoption of robotic surgery in breast cancer treatment has gained traction globally due to its minimally invasive nature, potential for improved cosmetic outcomes and better intraoperative visualization. This study provides insights on safety and feasibility robotic mastectomy at one of the largest centers in Asia.

Background: Intraoperative ultrasound-guided breast-conserving surgery guarantees real-time direct visualization of tumor and resection margins. We compared surgical, oncologic, and cosmetic outcomes between intraoperative ultrasound-guided breast-conserving surgery and traditional (palpation- or wire-guided) surgery across all breast cancer lesion types.
Methods: This prospective observational cohort study was conducted at the Veneto Institute of Oncology between January 2021 and October 2022.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy of dexmedetomidine preemptive analgesia in patients undergoing mastectomy.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted, including 236 patients who underwent breast tumor resection. Of these, 131 patients in the control group received routine postoperative intravenous patient-controlled analgesia, while 105 patients in the preemptive analgesia group received dexmedetomidine preemptive analgesia during surgery.

In recent years, minimally invasive breast surgery (MIBS) has revolutionized breast cancer treatment, allowing for preservation of aesthetic outcomes while ensuring oncological safety. However, this has created a new challenge in maintaining optimal visualization and dexterity during microvascular anastomosis which is critical for successful autologous tissue reconstruction. Traditional retractors often limit maneuverability, potentially impacting the outcomes of anastomotic procedures.
