Nipple-sparing mastectomy with robotic help and implant reconstruction
Part of Cancer clinical trials.
This trial tests a newer, less invasive way to remove breast tissue while keeping the nipple and skin, using robotic or endoscopic tools. It then rebuilds the breast with an implant wrapped in a non-biological mesh. The goal is to see how well patients recover and how they feel about the results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had breast cancer surgery at Peking University People's Hospital with hospital records
- A needle biopsy before surgery confirmed breast cancer
- Your cancer is at an early to moderate stage (0 to IIIB), with a tumor 5 cm or smaller and no spread beyond nearby lymph nodes
- The cancer has not spread to your nipple, skin, or chest wall
- You and your doctor plan to use a special mesh (like TiLoop) to partially or fully cover the implant during surgery
- You are willing and able to fill out questionnaires about your recovery and quality of life

This study looks at how women feel after having a robotic nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate implant reconstruction. It focuses on their well-being and satisfaction after surgery.
This trial compares how patients feel after open or robotic mastectomy combined with immediate DIEP flap reconstruction. It aims to see which approach improves wellbeing and recovery for women having this surgery.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for breast reconstruction: placing the implant under the chest muscle versus in front of it. It may help people understand which approach works better for comfort and healing after mastectomy.
This trial tests a robotic technique for nipple-sparing mastectomy with immediate breast reconstruction. The goal is to see if this approach is safe and effective for patients who are candidates for this surgery.
This study tests a less invasive surgery for breast cancer. It uses a single small opening and a robotic arm to remove breast tissue while keeping the skin and nipple, then rebuilds the breast right away. This might mean less scarring and a faster recovery while still treating the cancer.
This trial tests a robotic-assisted surgery technique for women who need a mastectomy but can keep their skin and nipple. It aims to improve outcomes for breast cancer patients and those at high risk.
