Round Block Technique in Management of Breast Lesions
Khanal S, Singh YP, Sharma R, Pandit K
Abstract: The basic tenets of oncoplastic surgery essentially includes volume displacement
and volume replacement. The round block technique, so-called donut mastopexy
or Benelli mastopexy, is frequently used as a volume displacement technique in
breast conserving surgery for benign multicentric fibroadenomas and early breast
cancers. Such techniques are still underused in Nepal. In this article we present on
four cases managed with original round block technique and followed prospectively
with their outcome.
