Abstract
Five patients who developed seromas following mastectomy with lymph node dissection were treated with aspiration of the seromas and instillation of a sclerosant solution containing tetracycline. All seromas resolved promptly without infection, flap necrosis, or recurrence. The technique is recommended for treatment of this postoperative complication.Entities:
