Realizing the psychological impact of nipple loss surgeons extended the concept of skin-sparing mastectomy to nipple-sparing mastectomy. In addition to retaining the native skin envelope, the nipple-sparing mastectomy also preserves the areola as well as the dermis and epidermis of the nipple while the underlying ducts are removed.
The nipple-sparing mastectomy may be an option in select patients, such as those undergoing prophylactic mastectomy for risk reduction. The risk of a retained occult malignancy is diminished by intra-operative frozen-section evaluation of the subareolar tissue.
