Oncoplastic breast surgery for the management of giant and multiple benign breast lesions

摘要

BACKGROUND: Oncoplastic breast surgery has become an integral component in the management of breast cancer. Benign breast lesions, especially when multiple or giant, constitute a difficulty in obtaining complete wide excision with minimal breast deformity and minimal small scars in addition to the high risk of recurrence. In this article, we present the results of management of multiple scattered and giant breast lesions using oncoplastic techniques. METHODS: Twenty-seven patients with giant and multiple scattered breast lesions were operated upon by 2 oncoplastic techniques, namely the round block and reduction mammoplasty technique. RESULTS: The cosmetic and oncological results were satisfactory from all aspects. There were no cases of breast deformity, all scars were acceptable and no reported cases of recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: Oncoplastic techniques can be applied with success in cases with giant and multiple benign breast lesions with favorable cosmetic and oncological outcome.
