“…Oncoplastic breast conserving surgery has become an integral part of breast cancer surgical treatment over the last two decades 1 . The evidence for oncoplastic breast conservation (OBC) is limited and prospective randomized controlled trials are unlikely ever to be undertaken given the complex ethical implications 2 .…”

“…The ‘coming of age’ of OPBS ( 40 ) has allowed many women to benefit from management planning by a multidisciplinary team offering a comprehensive breast cancer and reconstructive service. By restoring the size, shape and appearance of the breast, reconstruction improves a patient’s gender identity and quality-of-life across multiple domains – psychological, social, sexual, emotional, and functional.…”

This article provides an overview of the principles and techniques of oncoplastic and reconstructive breast surgery for patients with early-stage breast cancer. Oncoplastic breast surgery (OPBS) with partial breast reconstruction is a natural evolution in the application of breast conserving surgery and permits wide surgical resection of tumours that might otherwise mandate mastectomy and whole breast reconstruction. These reconstructive techniques must be optimally selected and integrated with ablative breast surgery together with non-surgical treatments such as radiotherapy and chemotherapy that may be variably sequenced with each other. A multidisciplinary approach with shared decision-making is essential to ensure optimal clinical and patient-reported outcomes that address oncological, aesthetic, functional and psychosocial domains. Future practice of OPBS must incorporate routine audit and comprehensive evaluation of outcomes.

“…Thus, OBS principles are based on integrating the principles and practices of conventional breast onco-surgery with those of plastic surgery [6]. OBS aims to achieve uncompromised oncological safety, better esthetic, and psycho-social outcomes that improve the QoL and prognosis in breast cancer patients [7,8].…”
