Oncoplasty as the Standard of Care in Breast Cancer Surgery

© TOUCH MEDICAL MEDIA 2014 43 Abstract Oncoplastic surgery is redefining breast cancer surgery today. Despite the lack of randomised clinical trials, current evidence suggests at least equivalent oncological outcomes, reduced re-excision rates and superior aesthetic results. This review outlines the arguments for the superiority of this new approach over the current standard of care and discusses some of the difficulties with regards to training and mentoring the next generation of surgeons.
