Article/Chapter Title: | Oncoplastic and reconstructive anatomy of the breast |
Abstract: | Breast cancer surgery has gone through various changes, and has become more complex and biologically individualized. Although the concern with local control of disease has still persisted, this is currently associated with an aesthetic-functional concept. Therefore, breast anatomy in the way it was traditionally approached requires updating. This chapter details the anatomical nuances of the breast and their respective impact on different oncoplastic surgical procedures to achieve an excellent cosmetic result with the lowest complication rate. © Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature 2013, 2019 |
