Introduction: Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) aims to improve patient satisfaction by preserving the nipple-areola complex (NAC) while ensuring oncologic safety. Different surgical incisions, such as inframammary fold (IMF) and periareolar/radial incisions, are used in NSM; however, their impact on NAC sensory loss remains unclear. In this study, the authors aimed to assess NAC sensation after NSM and compare the results of different incisional approaches, specifically IMF versus periareolar/radial.

Mesenchymal chondrosarcoma (MCS) is a rare, aggressive subtype of chondrosarcoma characterized by biphasic histology, often misdiagnosed due to its rarity and histological resemblance to other small round cell tumors. It predominantly affects adolescents and young adults. We report a 27-year-old male presenting with a progressively enlarging, painless mass in the right inframammary region, initially attributed to muscular strain.
