St. Joseph Hospital, The Center for Cancer Treatment and Prevention, Orange, CA, USA.
Background: The use of areola-sparing (AS) or nipple-areola-sparing (NAS) mastectomy for the treatment or risk reduction of breast cancer has been the subject of increasing dialogue in the surgical literature over the past decade. We report the initial experience of a large community hospital with AS and NAS mastectomies for both breast cancer treatment and risk reduction.
Methods: A retrospective chart review was performed of patients undergoing either AS or NAS mastectomies from November 2004 through September 2009.
