  • Title: [Subcutaneous mastectomy (author's transl)].
    Author: Opri F, Kirchner H.
    Journal: Zentralbl Gynakol; 1979; 101(20):1329-33. PubMed ID: 539211.
    Abstract:
    Subcutaneous mastectomy is a real precaution to third-order mastopathy, and it is urgently indicated for therapeutic action on carcinoma in situ, since the incidence of invasive carcinomas to accompany such diseases is between ten and 25 per cent. Proliferative forms of mastopathies were recorded from 768 in 2,563 surgically treated women, with atpical tissue being found in 164 cases. Carcinoma in situ was established from 28 women. Indications, limitations of the method, surgical technique, and complications are discussed against the background of results obtained from 31 subcutaneous mastectomies.
