Sensory testing and Biopsy
"Semmes-Weinstein testing: Each breast will be subdivided into 5 regions. This will include the upper 1/3rd, the middle 1/3rd medial and lateral to the nipple areola complex, the lower 1/3rd and the nipple areola-complex. These regions are consistent with the dermatomes described for the breast innervation.~A cutaneous nerve/skin biopsy is a simple procedure commonly performed on an outpatient setting. The total procedure is expected to take 20 minutes and may be done at the time of surgery as well as 2 and 6 months post operatively either during a revision or at a follow up visit."
