Almost two years to the day since my first case, it was a pleasure to be invited to support the first Endoscopic Ni**le Sparing Mastectomy (ENSM) case in Manchester performed by Rajiv Dave and Prof James Harvey.
Innovation in breast surgery is a great thing, and sharing knowledge and expertise can help to ensure a safe introduction of new techniques.
ENSM (Keyhole Mastectomy) has many benefits for a select group of patients, including:
âś…Reduced post operative pain and quicker recovery
âś…Reduced risk of complications
âś…Smaller scar (3-4cm scar hidden away from the breast)
âś…Better patient cosmetic satisfaction
I now offer this procedure for risk reduction purposes, such as patients with BRCA 1 and 2 gene mutations privately at Tyneside Surgical Services
