Abstract
PERALTA-CASTILLO, Guillermo G. et al. Single port endoscopic mastectomy: surgical technique and first case in Mexico. Cir. cir. [online]. 2020, vol.88, suppl.2, pp.108-112. Epub Feb 08, 2022. ISSN 2444-054X. https://doi.org/10.24875/ciru.19001631.
Technical innovations and scientific advances have allowed to perform countless endoscopic and laparoscopic surgical procedures. Among these, Single port endoscopic Mastectomy has been reported as well tolerated, with great aesthetic results and the same oncologic prognosis as traditional surgery. This popular approach in Asian countries presents many technical and economic challenges. We present the first endoscopic approach in our country: a female patient with infiltrating ductal carcinoma in the left breast. We understand that to carry out this procedure, adequate patient selection, great minimal invasive and breast surgery skills are necessary.
