Direct-to-implant reconstruction is one of the breast repair techniques after mastectomy. Implant selection is critical in the short- and long-term success of direct-to-implant reconstruction after nipple-sparing mastectomy. In this study we developed a 10-step algorithm that we use before and during surgery. We aimed to obtain natural and stable breast reconstruction with this algorithm. In addition, we also aimed to evaluate which implants were selected using this algorithm and their short- and long-term outcomes. This retrospective study included 218 patients aged 27 to 60 years who underwent mastectomy and direct-to-implant reconstruction between November 2018 and December 2021. The patients were assigned into 4 groups according to amount of breast tissue removed. We developed a 10-step algorithm and these included: breast base, amount of breast tissue removed, evaluation of mastectomy skin flap, breast projection, ptosis, unilateral/bilateral reconstruction, chest wall deformity, patient’s request, comorbid conditions and stabilization and arrangement of novel sulcus. The evaluation was made when the patient’s photographs were taken at least 1 year after the surgery. The highest number of patients was recorded in group 3; in addition, mean age was also highest in group 3. The lowest number of patients was recorded in group 4. The body mass index showed a progressive increase from group 1 to group 4. Medium height moderate profile prosthesis was used in 81.7% while medium height moderate plus profile prosthesis was used in 18.3% of breasts included. We used larger prosthesis up to 58.1% when compared to the tissue removed in group 1 while we used smaller prosthesis by 25.6% in group 4. In the anterior view, the medial and lateral arch of the lower pole of the breast was obtained in all patients. Obvious asymmetry developed in 4 patients. In lateral and oblique views, upper and lower pole natural breast images were obtained in all patients, except for 5 patients. There was no sulcus inferior displacement in any patient. Implant extrusion did not occur in any patient. This algorithm is an easy to use and effective method to obtain a stable and natural breast image in the long-term.
