Purpose: Doughnut mastopexy lumpectomy (DML) is a breast resection technique in which a tissue segment is removed and the breast reshaped through a doughnut-shaped de-epithelialized periareolar area. In this study, we attempted to determine whether the DML technique could be useful for other types of breast surgery, in addition to breast cancer lumpectomy. Methods: This study examined a total of 4 patients who underwent the DML technique and were followed up for at least 1 year postoperatively. One patient underwent phyllodes tumor resection, 1 patient underwent removal of a siliconoma, and 2 patients underwent breast reduction mammaplasty. Results: This method enabled en-bloc removal of a large tissue mass or large foreign body that could not be removed through a short periareolar incision. The surgical method of this study enabled the extent of de-epithelialization to be changed according to the size and location of the mass to be excised;good cosmetic results were also obtained. In addition, the surgical method enabled the facile excision of tumors and foreign materials. Conclusions: The DML technique is a useful surgical method that is applicable to other breast surgeries, in addition to breast cancer surgery.
