Oncoplastic breast surgery for patients with breast cancer
(2023) In Ugeskrift for Laeger 185(34).- Abstract
Lifetime risk of developing breast cancer for Danish women is approx. 9%. Diagnostics are done by mammography, biopsy, and examination. Breast-conserving surgery followed by radiotherapy is standard for treatment of early-stage breast cancer. Studies report unsatisfying outcomes in up to one third of the patients. This review summarises the current surgical techniques. Oncoplastic breast surgery makes it possible to combine wide-margin oncological surgery with immediate partial breast reconstruction, thus improving cosmetic outcome. Techniques involve volume reduction, volume displacement and volume replacement, depending on breast size and tumour characteristics.
