Surgeons remain reluctant to perform nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) in large breasts due to a higher risk of necrosis.

We performed a systematic review of the literature to evaluate indications, techniques, and outcomes in immediate or delayed breast reconstructions in large and/or ptotic breasts.

The following search terms were used for both titles and key words: [NSM AND (“breast ptosis” OR “ptotic breast” OR “large breast” OR “breast hypertrophy” OR “gigantomastia”)].

All forms of breast reconstruction in large and/or ptotic breasts from 1990 through September 1st 2018 reporting indications, techniques, and outcomes were included.
