Summary

This study reviews medical records of 75 women who had a preventive nipple-sparing mastectomy (removing breast tissue while keeping the nipple). The goal is to see how often complications occur within 42 days after surgery. Researchers also check if the surgery successfully removes all breast tissue while preserving the nipple. This is an observational study, not a test of a new treatment.
