Nipple-sparing mastectomy (NSM) outcomes in the elderly have not been well characterized. The goal of this study was to evaluate NSM outcomes in patients over age 60. A single-institution retrospective cohort study was performed for NSM patients over the age of 60 from January 2004 to January 2022. Demographic, intraoperative, and postoperative variables were collected. We identified 136 women who underwent a total of 200 NSMs at a mean age 65.2 years and with mean body mass index of 25. Most (56%) had invasive breast cancer, requiring neoadjuvant chemotherapy in 15%, and 17.5% had radiation prior to NSM. A total of 91% had immediate tissue expander placement. The infection rate was 19%, with 11.5% requiring expander explantation in the follow-up period. In binomial logistic regression analysis, prior radiation increased the odds of any complication by 2.9 (OR 2.93, CI 1.30-6.58, p = 0.009) and increased the odds of infection by 5.7 (OR 5.70, CI 1.95-16.66, p = 0.001), but no associations were seen for other covariates including age, comorbidities, prior chemotherapy, or presence of invasive disease. Diabetes increased the odds of wound breakdown specifically by 9.0 (OR 8.97, CI 2.01-39.92, p = 0.004). Local recurrence was 3% in mean 3.4-year follow-up. Our data support NSM in patients over the age of 60 years with acceptable outcomes within the standard of care. Locoregional recurrence was within the cited range of 0-5%, and only diabetes and prior radiation were associated with reconstructive complications. NSM should thus be offered when appropriate regardless of increased age to achieve oncologic and reconstructive goals.
