Oncoplastic breast surgery is primarily used to treat breast cancer and related conditions. Here are some specific conditions that can be addressed with oncoplastic breast surgery:
1-Breast Cancer:
- Lumpectomy (Partial Mastectomy): Oncoplastic surgery is often employed when a woman chooses breast-conserving surgery (lumpectomy) to remove cancerous tissue while preserving the breast’s appearance.
2-Large or Multifocal Tumors:
- Oncoplastic techniques may be utilized when dealing with larger tumors or multiple tumors within the breast. This allows for the removal of cancerous tissue while maintaining breast shape and symmetry.
3-Tumor Recurrence:
- In cases where breast cancer recurs after initial treatment, oncoplastic surgery can be employed to address the recurrence while preserving the aesthetic appearance of the breast.
4-Prophylactic (Preventive) Mastectomy:
- Some women at high risk of breast cancer may opt for prophylactic mastectomy. Oncoplastic surgery can be used in reconstructing the breast after preventive removal.
5-Inflammatory Breast Cancer
- In cases of inflammatory breast cancer, which may involve larger areas of the breast, oncoplastic techniques can be employed to remove cancerous tissue and reconstruct the breast.
6-Breast Asymmetry:
- Oncoplastic surgery can be used to address breast asymmetry resulting from cancer removal or other breast surgeries.
7-Post-Mastectomy Reconstruction:
