Abstract
Background: An important complication following mastectomy is seroma formation, associated with repeated aspirations, pain and discomfort. Quilting, in which skin flaps are sutured to the underlying muscle, is reported to reduce seroma incidence, but might induce pain and impair shoulder function. Main objective is to compare quilting with conventional wound closure, regarding seroma incidence, healthcare consumption and patient discomfort.
