Appliation of oncoplastic breast-conserving reconstruction for patients with early-stage breast cancer / 国际肿瘤学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To analyze the cosmetic effects and postoperative complications of patients with early breast cancer who underwent oncoplastic breast-conserving reconstruction and traditional breast-conserving surgery.Methods From January 201 2 to October 201 5,we collected a total of 67 patients with early-stage breast cancer who underwent breast-conserving surgery in Affiliated Mindong Hospital of Fujian Medical Univer-sity.Thirty patients who underwent oncoplastic breast-conserving reconstruction were in observation group,and 37 patients who underwent traditional breast-conserving surgery were in the control group.The postoperative complications,cosmetic effects and survival situations in the two groups were compared.Results In the aes-thetic effects evaluation,22 patients (73.33%)and 1 6 patients (43.24%)had good or excellent cosmetic effects,6 patients (20.00%)and 1 4 patients (37.84%)had general cosmetic effects,2 patients (6.67%) and 7 patients (1 8.92%)had poor cosmetic effects in the observation group and control group,with a signifi-cant difference (Z =-2.51 3,P =0.01 2).Four patients (1 3.33%)in the observation group had postopera-tive complications,including that 1 patients had incisional dehiscence followed by incisional wound infection and skin necrosis,and 3 patients had subcutaneous exudates.However,2 patients (5.41 %)in the control group had postoperative complications,including 1 patients with incisional dehiscence,and 1 patients with inci-sional wound infection.There were no significant difference in the occurrence rates of postoperative complica-tions in the two groups (χ2 =0.490,P =0.484).The mean follow-up period was 28 months.We found 1 patients of local recurrence,and 2 patients of metastases in the control group.However,all patients were free of recurrence and metastases in the observation group,with no significant difference (P =0.1 40).Conclusion Oncoplastic surgical technique in the breast-conserving surgery for patients with early-stage breast cancer is a safe and effective procedure,with highly satisfactory cosmetic effects for the majority of patients,which is worth to recommend.
