The nipple-areola prosthesis is a useful temporary or permanent adjunct to breast reconstruction. The commercially available prostheses, however, are unable to reflect the remarkable normal variation in this anatomical feature. We describe the production and use of custom-made prostheses using the remaining nipple-areola complex as a template. Their success in 72 patients has led us to adopt such prostheses as routine in breast reconstruction.
乳头乳晕假体是乳房重建中一种有用的临时或永久性辅助手段。然而,市售的假体无法反映出这一解剖特征显著的正常差异。我们描述了以剩余的乳头乳晕复合体为模板制作和使用定制假体的方法。它们在72例患者中的成功应用使我们在乳房重建中常规采用此类假体。
