Oncoplastic Breast-Conserving Surgery for Tumors Larger than 2 Centimeters: Is it Oncologically Safe? A Matched-Cohort Analysis

Abstract: To our knowledge, the present study provides the best available evidence to suggest that oncoplastic approach is a safe and reliable treatment for managing invasive pT2 breast cancers.

“…Although this associated rise is multifactorial, it can be attributed to increased life expectancy, hormone use, prevalence of obesity treatment, and screening options [s3]. Simultaneously, surgical interventions are transitioning towards a reconstructive approach that ensures aesthetic satisfaction in combination with oncologic safety [4, 5]. …”

“…In the recent decades, the surgical management of breast cancer has steadily evolved from radical surgery to breast conservation. As a result, oncoplastic surgical techniques have emerged and are expanding dramatically . Oncoplastic surgery combines oncologic resection with immediate breast reconstruction using techniques derived from plastic surgery.…”

“…In the case where breast size is larger and tumor is large (e.g., T2-T3 invasive cancer) breast cancer, neoadjuvant chemotherapy should certainly be in the discussion to reduce tumor size and facilitate breast conservation. However, newer oncoplastic breast conservation techniques now allow very large partial mastectomies followed by the use of mastopexy or breast reduction techniques to rearrange the breast to maintain and possibly improve post-operative breast form (12)(13)(14). The need to reduce tumor size preoperatively in this circumstance may not be as critical as oncoplastic surgical techniques can remove these large tumors while maintaining breast aesthetics.…”
