The evolution of mastectomy technique from modified radical mastectomy to nipple sparing mastectomy with immediate or delayed breast reconstruction is also a potential cause of increasing mastectomy rate.

We report clinical course and immediate outcome of the oncologic and reconstructive surgery in this case.
