We report the results of simple oncoplastic surgery for Japanese patients with early breast cancer in the upper quadrant area. Methods: In seven patients with a past history of breast-feeding and ptotic breasts, we performed oncoplastic surgery involving partial mastectomy and the resection of excess skin and parenchymal tissue. Results: None of the patients received a contralateral operation to produce symmetrical breasts. The width of the resected excess skin tissue ranged from 20 to 50 mm, with the mean width being 30 mm, and its length ranged from 50 to 90, with the mean length being 77 mm. The width of the resected gland tissue ranged from 40 to 65 mm, with the mean width being 53 mm, and its length ranged from 70 to 100 mm, with the mean length being 97 mm. The cosmetic results were excellent. Conclusions: Oncoplastic surgery using spindle shaped-resection was successfully performed in patients with upper quadrant lesions, and the cosmetic results were excellent.展开更多

In order to achieve local control of the solitary recurrent lesion, we resected the remnant breast, which gave us a useful opportunity to examine the previously implanted flap histologically. A 33-year-old Japanese female was diagnosed with T2N0M0 breast cancer in the outer area of her left breast and underwent partial mastectomy with immediate reconstruction using a local adipofascial flap. The breast lesion was considered to be invasive ductal carcinoma, scirrhous carcinoma, lymphatic invasion+, venous invasion-, estrogen receptor+, progesterone receptor+, and HER2/neu-. Involvement was noted in three of the twenty-five resected axillary lymph nodes. She received adjuvant hormone therapy, but developed a solitary local recurrence of the skin forty-five months after the initial procedure, for which she received total mastectomy, systemic chemotherapy, and hormone therapy. During the histological examination of the local adipofascial flap that had been implanted into the partial breast defect, normal fatty tissue and the implanted fascia were seen at the implantation site. This is a rare report in which a local flap that was implanted during oncoplastic breast surgery was histologically examined.展开更多
