Predicting Nipple Necrosis with a “Lights-on” Indocyanine Green Imaging System: A Report of Two Patients

Nipple–areolar complex (NAC) necrosis is a devastating complication in nipple-sparing mastectomies (NSMs) that significantly impacts patient's quality of life. The use of fluorescence angiography for intraoperative assessment of mastectomy skin flap perfusion in NSM has been successfully descri...
