Summary
This study tested a new way to rebuild the breast after preventive mastectomy in women at high genetic risk for breast cancer. Instead of a scar on the breast and cutting the chest muscle, surgeons used a single-port endoscope through a small incision in the armpit to place the implant under the skin. The goal was to avoid muscle damage and reduce complications. The study included 20 women with small to medium breast size and minimal sagging.
