Abstract:
Objective To explore the application and assess the cosmetic effect of mammaplasty with volume-displacement technique(VDT)following breast conserving surgery.Methods Breast conservation therapy(BCT) was performed in 77 patients of early breast cancer(EBC).Of the patients,42 cases received oncoplastic VDT (onco-plastic group)and 35 cases had only direct skin closure without treatment of the postresection defect (regular group) following BCT.The cosmetic results of the two groups were evaluated after operation and radiotherapy,respectively. Results All patients were followed up for 1 -36 months with median follow -up of 22.3 months,and no recurrence or metastasis occurred in one of the patients.1 month after surgery,the excellent or good cosmetic outcome were achieved in 31 cases (73.81%)in oncoplastic group and 17 cases (48.57%)in regular group respectively,and there was statistical difference between the two groups (χ2 =5.442,P =0.021);1 month after radiotherapy,the cos-metic excellent or good result were obtained in 27 cases (64.29%)in oncoplastic group and 6 cases (17.14%)in regular group respectively,and the difference between the two groups reached statistical significance (χ2 =9.045,P =0.008).Conclusion VDT can improve the cosmetic effect of mammaplasty following BCT in EBC and does not affect curative effect,it is worthy of promoting.
