ELectrosurgical Bipolar Devices VS Conventional Electro-cauterization in Breast Surgery

Electrosurgical bipolar sealing devices use the body's own collagen and elastin to create a permanent fusion zone through a combination of pressure and energy. Previous studies suggested that surgery using these devices lead to significant decrease of seroma formation, however their advantages are not well established in case of mastectomy for breast cancer.

the surgeon uses electrosurgical bipolar sealing device during tissue dissection and vessel ligation as much as possible.
