Abstract
Introduction: Seroma is a common occurrence after mastectomy and repeated aspiration of it is associated with infection and financial implication for the NHS and negatively affects the patient experience. Various strategies are described to reduce seroma including quilting, ultrasonic dissectors and fibrin glue. This study was performed to assess whether quilting (progressive tension sutures) reduces seroma rate after mastectomy.
