Analysis of Skin Flap Thickness and Residual Breast Tissue After Mastectomy

All forms of mastectomy leave RBT. Our study has demonstrated that the RBT amount can be variable and quite prevalent. Because of the low quality of the evidence to ensure the oncological safety of sparing mastectomies, we suggest that knowledge of the extent of the remaining breast tissue is important for guiding additional surveillance and therapeutic interventions, including radiation therapy.
