Background Smoking cessation therapy, including nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), is used perioperatively to assist patients to reduce their tobacco smoke intake and consequently decrease their risk of smoking-associated complications. There are, however, theoretical concerns that nicotine-induced peripheral vasoconstriction could impair wound healing. This study investigated the effect of NRT on postoperative outcomes in patients undergoing breast surgery. Methods A retrospective chart review of patients undergoing breast surgery within the Yale New Haven Health System from the years 2014 to 2020 was performed. Documented smoking status within 6 months before surgery, use or prescription of NRT, type of surgery, and surgical complications of infection, wound dehiscence, tissue necrosis, hematoma, seroma, fat necrosis, and return to operating room within 30 days were recorded. Demographic and complication data were compared between patients with NRT usage and those without using t -tests and chi-square analyses. Multivariable logistic regression models were created to predict the effect of NRT usage on the occurrence of any complication. Results A total of 613 breast procedures met inclusion criteria, of which 105 (17.2%) had documented NRT use. The NRT cohort and the non-NRT cohort were well balanced with respect to demographics and procedural variables. Upon multivariable modeling for risk of any surgical complication, NRT was not a significant predictor (odds ratio [OR]: 1.199, p = 0.607 and OR: 0.974, p = 0.912, respectively), whereas procedure type, increased body mass index, and increased age were. Conclusion NRT use was not associated with an increased risk of postoperative complications compared with not using NRT as part of smoking cessation therapy prior to operation.
