“…1,2 Anthropometric characteristics of breast were seldom investigated for cancer risk, 3 only the relation between breast size and cancer has been searched. 4,5 It has been shown that breast asymmetry is more frequent in large breasts compared with small breasts and is higher in women without children than in women with at least one child. 3 The breast volume, as one of the main anthropometric criteria of breast, has usually been considered in preoperative surgical planning and to evaluate cosmetic outcome after breast surgery.…”

AIMThe aim of this study was to investigate the criteria for determining the cancer risk of the breast asymmetry by comparing breast volume asymmetry levels between healthy women and women with cancer.MATERIALS AND METHODSTwo hundred and one women with breast cancer (group 1) were compared with 446 healthy women (group 2) who had no pathologic findings in breast sonography and mammograpy repeated with one-year interval. Data were evaluated retrospectively. Each breast volume was measured twice by Grossman-Roudner Discs. The mean value has been recorded. The amounts of volume difference between two breasts (asymmetry value) and the rates of the volume difference to the breast volume of the smaller side (asymmetry ratio) were compared in both groups.RESULTSThere was a statistically significant difference between two groups with regard to average age and body mass index (P < 0.01). This significance was decreased but not disappeared, when the comparison was made within the 40–69 age group (P > 0.01). The rate of cases with asymmetry value over 50 mL was significantly higher in the cancer group (P = 0.029). Unfortunately, it disappeared in the 40–69 age group (P = 0.201). The breast volume asymmetry ratio over 20% was significantly higher in the cancer group both in all ages and in the 40–69 age group (P < 0.01). Odds ratio was 2.18 in the entire (all) series and 2.01 in the 40–69 age group. Moreover, there was no significant difference with regard to the rate of tumor location between the smaller or larger side of breast.CONCLUSIONOur data show that there is a positive correlation between breast asymmetry ratio over 20% and breast cancer risk. These results need to be confirmed by prospective randomized controlled trials.

“…For the round-shaped prosthesis, rotation in a plane parallel to the chest is only minimally discernable, but displacement over the rib cage from its intended position will result in a grossly abnormal appearance of the breast. In aesthetic and reconstructive surgery, implant stability is crucial to the overall success of the procedure; methods of monitoring implant biostability through 3D analyses have been recently proposed [15]. Currently, the most commonly utilized expander implants are anatomically shaped in the form of a teardrop in order to allow preferential expansion of the tissue in the lower pole of the breast envelope to better reestablish a natural breast shape.…”

“…Computer Assisted Surgery (CAS) of the reverse engineering has been successful applied in clinical usage [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Current researches in performing 3D computerized-aided simulation of preoperative planning systems have shown significantly shortened operation time and improved surgical outcome by minimizing the possible pitfall during surgery [1][2][3][4].…”

A computer-assisted preoperative simulating system for calcaneal collapse's internal fixation surgery by integrating different CAD software's function has been developed in this paper. This system uses the full-scaled 3D reverse engineering technique in designing and developing preoperative simulation modules for the calcaneal internal fixation surgery. The simulating system presents a real-sized 3D image of the calcaneus, and provides detailed interior measurements of the calcaneus from various cutting planes. This study applied computer-assisted technology to integrate different software's function to a surgical simulation system, which includes a 3-D image model capturing, cutting, moving, rotating and measurement for relevant foot anatomy. Surgeons can utilize it as part of preoperative simulation to develop efficient operative procedures. This system also has an extendable databank which provides the clinical cases to different users for experience learning.
