Refinement of drainage-free radical mastectomy as a way to improve direct results of surgical treatment

A procedure for drainage-free radical mastectomy is proposed, which can significantly reduce not only the incidence of postoperative lymphorrhea (from 10 to 4.2%), but also its average duration (from 9 to 4 days). No postoperative wound complications accelerate healing and accordingly decrease the length of bed rest. This determines the economic benefits of the proposed procedure and makes it possible to continue combined or complex treatment.
