Trial summary

1. Learning curve of ms-Tram and DIEP breast reconstructions surgery are important to guide the training of new surgeon. 2. Buried flap post operative monitoring without implantable doppler was seldom studied, a validated protocol reported. 3. The complication rates of the flap and oncological safety were studied.

Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 years and older
  • Women only
  • Healthy volunteers accepted
  • Adult, Older adult

Study population: The eligibility of patients for free-TRAM/DIEP was based on the judgement of surgeons, preference of patients, and guideline recommendation as a standard-of-care. For NSM, patients should receive standard-of-care physical examination, ultrasound, mammogram and/or MRI assessment of the involved breast. Patients with clinical involvement of the nipple areola complex (NAC) were excluded

Who may be able to join

  • Female breast cancer patients with age > 18 years
  • Received autologous abdominal free-flap breast reconstruction (including muscle-sparing free TRAM or DIEP)

Who cannot join

  • Breast conserving patient
  • Implant-based breast reconstruction

About this study

Official title: The Feasibility of Nipple-sparing Mastectomy in Combined With Abdominal Free Flap Breast Reconstruction Without Skin Paddles for Flap Monitoring: a Single-center Experience

  1. Learning curve of ms-Tram and DIEP breast reconstructions surgery are important to guide the training of new surgeon.
  2. Buried flap post operative monitoring without implantable doppler was seldom studied, a validated protocol reported.
  3. The complication rates of the flap and oncological safety were studied.
Read the detailed description

Operative time and complication rate are employed to analysis the learning curve of the ms-Tram and DIEP surgery,which is meaningful for the new microsurgeon training.

Buried flap without the implatable doppler is very common condition all over the world, and the complication rate was evaluated as evidence of reliable of the validated monitoring protocol.

Complication rates were considered as different before and after the platue of the learning curve. Within the study of the learning curve, complication rates were reported.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Breast/Surgery, run by Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hospital of Sun Yat-Sen University.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 29 Sep 2022. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Total flap failure rate (time frame: Through study completion, and average of 2.5 year). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05560633, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 29 Sep 2022.
