The TiLOOP®Bra is designed to assist oncologically indexed skin sparing mastectomy or subcutaneous mastectomy with preservation of the nipple-areola-complex during primary breast reconstruction, secondary breast reconstruction or corrective breast surgery. Patients shall be included if they meet all of the following criteria:

Clinical Criteria (reason):

• women with indication of prophylactic operation or oncoplastic operation with support of a mesh implant
• women with histologically confirmed breast cancer or precancerosis or genetic pre-existing conditions with increased risk of breast cancer or with a family history
• the health of women must comply with ECOG (Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group) performance status 0-2

Study-related inclusion criteria - Legal reasons:

• Patient is mentally able to understand the nature, aims, or possible consequences of the clinical investigation
• Patient information has been handed out and all written consents are at hand.
• Patient is between 18 and 70 years old.

Exclusion Criteria:

Patients must be excluded if any of the following conditions exist or cannot be excluded:

Device-related exclusion criteria (contraindications):

Pathological or physical condition precluding such as:

• Pregnancy or breast-feeding patients
• Known intolerance to the mesh-implants under investigation.

Study-related exclusion criteria - Medical reasons:

• metastatic breast cancer
• medicamentous regulated diabetes with blood sugar level >250
• inadequate bone marrow function with neutrophil granulocytes <1500 and blood plates < 10000/µl
• patient with known contraindication to mesh-implants or plastic-reconstructive breast operations

Study-related exclusion criteria - Legal reasons:

• Lack of written patients informed consent.
• Lack of patient compliance regarding data collection, treatment or follow-up investigations in the scope of the protocol.
