Comparative study of Mammotome minimally invasive operation and traditional surgery in treating benign breast tumor

Abstract

Objective To compare the effect of ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation and traditional surgery in treating benign breast tumor. Methods Eighty patients with benign breast tumor admitted to People′s Hospital of Beijing Daxing District from October 2015 to April 2016 were randomly divided into group A and group B. Patients in group A accepted ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation (n=40), while patients in Group B accepted traditional surgery(n=40). Operation time, incision length, blood loss, patient satisfaction, postoperative pain, and the occurrence rates of complications were compared between the two groups. Results All the tumors in two groups were removed. Patients in group A had shorter operation time(10.4±1.0) min, less blood loss(4.1±0.5) ml, smaller length of incision(0.34±0.04) cm (P<0.05 or P<0.01); also had less occurrence of complication (P<0.05); and patients in group A had better patient′s satisfaction(95%) (P<0.01). Conclusions Ultrasound-guided Mammotome minimally invasive operation is helpful to shorten operation time and incision length, and reduce blood loss, also improve satisfaction. It is valuable for application and popularization in primary hospital. Key words: Breast neoplasms; Surgical procedures, minimally invasive; Comparative study; Mammotome minimally invasive operation
