متن کاملEvolution of radical mastectomy for breast cancer
Surgical treatment of breast cancer has been marked by a constant evolution since the Halsted radical mastectomy described in the late 19th century has become the current standard Madden radical mastectomy, a breast surgery that involves the ablation of tissue with the axillary lymphatic preserving both pectoral muscles. The purpose of this paper was to present the stages that have marked the e...
متن کاملA prospective randomized study on management of suction drains in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy
Background and Objectives: Seroma, a subcutaneous collection of serous fluid, is the most common morbidity after modified radical mastectomy. Closed suction drains are used for drainage of serous fluid after MRM to obliterate the space beneath skin flaps and thus to decrease seroma formation. Amongst various factors that influence the amount of postoperative drainage, the negative suction press...
متن کاملHarmonic Scalpel versus Electrocautery Dissection in Modified Radical Mastectomy for Breast Cancer: A Meta-Analysis
BACKGROUND Despite the common use of conventional electrocautery in modified radical mastectomy for breast cancer, the harmonic scalpel is recently emerging as a dominant surgical instrument for dissection and haemostasis, which is thought to reduce the morbidity, such as seroma and blood loss. But the results of published trials are inconsistent. So we made the meta-analysis to assess the intr...
متن کاملPsychological Influence on Breast Cancer Patients of Breast-conserving Surgery and Modified Radical Mastectomy
With a rising diagnostic rate of breast cancer in early stage, and a progress of comprehensive treatment modality, breast conserving surgery (BCS) is considered to be an appropriate treatment for patients with stage I or II disease (Borgen et al., 1995). BCS is reported to alleviate the suffering of patients by reducing the extent of surgical resection and not impairing treatment efficacy, thus...
