Brief Summary

This study evaluates the safety and effectiveness of the da Vinci Surgical Systems in prophylactic Nipple Sparing Mastectomy procedures.

Detailed Description

Surgical management for breast cancer and risk-reducing techniques have evolved from radical mastectomy to other techniques such as nipple and skin sparing procedures. Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) with reconstruction technology offers the opportunity to preserve the shape of both the breast and the nipple-areola complex.

This study will evaluate the safety and effectiveness of the da Vinci Surgical Systems in NSM procedures.
