About

The study seeks to compare the single-incision lateral mammoplasty technique with the matrix rotation flap in patients with breast carcinoma. The primary outcome assessed is postoperative complications, while secondary outcomes include cosmetic appearance and patient satisfaction.

Full description

This study is designed to conduct a comprehensive comparison between two breast-conserving surgical techniques used in the treatment of breast carcinoma: the single-incision lateral mammoplasty and the matrix rotation flap. These procedures are employed to achieve both oncologic safety and aesthetic preservation in patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer.

The primary objective of the study is to evaluate and compare the incidence and nature of postoperative complications associated with each technique. This includes, but is not limited to, wound healing issues, infection rates, hematoma or seroma formation, and any need for reoperation.

Secondary objectives focus on assessing the cosmetic outcomes and the overall satisfaction of the patients post-surgery. Cosmetic evaluation will be conducted through both surgeon-assessed and patient-reported outcomes, utilizing standardized scoring systems and photographic documentation. Patient satisfaction will be measured through validated questionnaires designed to capture perceptions of body image, aesthetic results, and quality of life following the procedure.

By systematically analyzing these parameters, the study aims to determine which technique offers a more favorable balance of surgical safety, aesthetic quality, and patient satisfaction, thereby guiding clinical decision-making in breast-conserving surgery for breast carcinoma.
