Official title
Evaluating the Efficacy of Force Modulating Tissue Bridge Device in Preventing Hypertrophic Scars Following Gender-Affirming Mastectomy: A Randomized Self-Controlled Trial
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The goal of this randomized, prospective, interventional clinical trial is to evaluate the use of Brijjit® in reducing the incidence of hypertrophic scarring in individuals undergoing gender-affirming bilateral double incision mastectomies at a single-institution, single-surgeon site (Esther A. Kim, MD). Patients will serve as a self-control (one side of the chest receives intervention, the other serves as a control). Primary endpoints include scar appearance and quality. Secondary endpoints include patient perception of the scar using the Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale (POSAS). Participants will be taught how to apply Brijjit® at home if any units fall off before 6 weeks postop.
