About this study

Official title: Randomized Controlled Trial for 'Focus Clearing + Whole Breast Exploration and Washing + One-Stage Micro Plastic Surgery' Treatment for Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis

Granulomatous lobular mastitis (GLM) belongs to a group of benign diseases, which is mainly treated with glucocorticoids and surgical treatment. Nowadays, in China, surgical treatment has gradually become the mainstream, but the timing and the extent of surgery are still controversial, and different literatures report that the recurrence rate after surgery is 20-50%. Empirical lesion resection is generally used. We believe that the main reason for the high recurrence rate is the incomplete removal of the breast lesions. Because GLM is often characterized with microabscesses formation, empirical resection is likely to have residual lesions that are not visible to the naked eye. In order to reduce the postoperative recurrence rate and protect the breast appearance as much as possible, we propose a surgical plan : granulomatous lobular mastitis "lesion removal + whole breast exploration and flushing + one-stage microplastic surgery". The purpose of this study was to compare this surgical scheme of granulomatous lobular mastitis with existing surgical schemes, and to compare the overall benefits of the two for patients with GLM. We aim to protect the breast appearance on the premise of low recurrence, improve the quality of life of GLM patients, and standardize GLM surgical schemes.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Focus clearing + whole breast exploration and washing + one-stage micro plastic surgery No Intervention: Extensive lesion excisionProcedure or surgery

    Only visible lesions and necrotic tissues, such as abscess cavity, sinus tract and fistula, were removed intraoperatively, while normal glands and fat were retained. Preoperative ultrasound was used to locate the lesion area and then the surgical incision was designed. Intraoperative ultrasound examination of latent small lesions, resection of lesions visible under ultrasound, and then a full breast exploration, one finger page incision interval.Radially cut from the base to the subcutaneous, lesions were found and treated locally. After removal of lesion, fully using the syringe, in turn, use of 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, 1% eniodine, saline water is widely jet pulse washing, and around the lesions base. After rinsing, soak in 1% active iodine for 10min, then rinse with normal saline until the liquid is clear. Breast tumor Surgery (Oncoplastic Breast Surgery, OBS) core technology (volume replacement and volume replacement).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Recurrence rate

    Inflammatory changes, mass, abscess or fistula formation, nodular erythema of the upper and lower extremities and joint pain occurred in the ipilateral breast within one year after surgery was defined as recurrence.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Breast appearance and cosmetic effect score

    Refer to Harris standard to evaluate postoperative cosmetic effect. Specify the breast appearance and cosmetic effect rating table.

    Measured: Up to 2 years

  2. Surgical incision healing time

    Surgical incision healing time was defined as the time from the first day after the operation to the healing time of the surgical incision. The wound surface was dry, there was no effusion, and no surgical incision complications occurred

    Measured: Up to 2 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study of Refractory Granulomatous Lobular Mastitis, run by Wuhan University at 1 site in China.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

The record says: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 20 Nov 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in China. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Each site lists its own contact: choose the nearest one under Trial locations. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Recurrence rate (time frame: Up to 2 years). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 20 Nov 2020.
