Abstract
Skin-sparing and nipple-sparing mastectomies with immediate reconstruction for breast cancer are increasing. The superficial fascia is considered a natural border and the superficial margin may not be evaluated. We emphasize the need for reporting of the superficial margin status in these procedures to obtain valid information on its association with local recurrence risks.
