RESUMO
Objective To compare vacuum-assisted excision with periareola incision surgery for benign breast cancer.Methods One hundred and twenty one patients with benign breast nodules treated in our hospital from October 2014 to October 2015 were enrolled in the study,including 58 cases received vacuum-assisted excision (study group) and 63 cases received periareola incision surgery (control group).There were no differences in age[(30.2 ±5.4) vs.(32.1 ±6.2) years] and tumor diameter[(1.3 ±0.4) vs.(1.5 ± 0.3) cm] between two groups.Results There were no severe complications in both groups.Compared with the control group,the operation time was shorter] (20.4 ±4.7) vs.(48.2 ± 15.4)min,t =3.165,P =0.006],intraoperative blood loss was less [(18.4 ± 5.7) vs.(17.2 ± 3.7) ml,t =-0.297,P =0.672],malformation rate was lower [5.2％ (3/58)vs.22.2％ (14/63),x2 =7.27,P =0.007],incidence of postoperative hematoma was higher [20.7％ (10/58) vs.6.3％ (4/63),x2 =3.502,P =0.041],and the cost of surgery was more expensive(5 100 ± 300) vs.(3 400 ± 1 200) Yuan,t =2.181,P =0.023].Conclusion Comparing with conventional periareolar incision surgery,the vacuum-assisted excision has its advantages and disadvantages for treatment benign breast tumors,and two surgical modalities can be chosen accordingly.
