Oncoplastic surgery combining breast conservative treatment (BCT) and plastic surgery techniques may allow more extensive breast resections and improve aesthetic outcomes, but no long-term oncological results have been published.

Abstract

Oncoplastic surgery combining breast conservative treatment (BCT) and plastic surgery techniques may allow more extensive breast resections and improve aesthetic outcomes, but no long-term oncological results have been published. Long-term oncologic results of 148 consecutive BCT with concomitant bilateral plastic surgery have been analysed and were compared to historical data of BCT trials. Median follow-up was 74 months. Complete excision was obtained in 135 patients (91%); focally involved margins in 8 (5%); and close (<2 mm) margins in 5 (3%). Five patients developed ipsilateral recurrence (3%), 19 (13%) developed distant metastasis and 11 patients died (7.53%). Patients with tumours larger than 2 cm were at greater risk of local recurrences and distant metastasis. Long-term oncologic results of BCT with oncoplastic surgery are comparable with the results of BCT randomized trials.
