Not Applicable

Recruiting

• Conditions: Breast Cancer

• Registration Number: NCT06817954
• Lead Sponsor: The First Affiliated Hospital with Nanjing Medical University

Brief Summary

The new technology of endoscopic-assisted system, as an emerging technology, has shown certain application prospects in breast surgery. However, the new technology of endoscopic-assisted mastectomy and immediate breast reconstruction in China in the treatment of breast cancer is still in the exploratory stage and needs to be further improved. This prospective, single-center, double-arm clinical study was conducted to use the endoscopic-assisted system and evaluate the effectiveness and safety of the mastectomy combined with immediate breast reconstruction in breast cancer.
