Outcomes of a Novel Technique of Mini- Incision and Self-Express (MISE) for Breast Abscess

March 7, 2023 updated by: KK Women's and Children's Hospital

A Comparison of the Outcomes of a Novel Technique of Mini- Incision and Self-Express (MISE) for Breast Abscess With the Conventional Techniques: A Retrospective Comparative Cohort Study

Conventional techniques for treatment of breast abscess, such as incision and drainage/percutaneous drainage, have disadvantages. Bedside Mini-Incision and Self-Express (MISE) is a novel technique for breast abscess. The outcomes of MISE were compared to the conventional techniques.
