Concordance Between Preoperative Assessments and Pathologic Size Measurements in Breast Cancer: a Prospective Observational Study

Status: Recruiting
Location: See location...
Intervention Type: Other
Study Type: Observational
SUMMARY

Breast cancer, the most prevalent malignancy among women globally, is increasing in incidence. While non-metastatic breast cancer requires surgery, determining the optimal extent of resection remains challenging. Inadequate resection margins necessitate reoperation, leading to increased psychological stress, costs, and potentially compromised cosmetic outcomes and prognosis. Accurate preoperative assessment of resection extent is crucial and involves various factors, including imaging studies, physical examinations, tumor molecular subtypes, and intraductal carcinoma components. This prospective observational study aims to identify and integrate multiple predictive factors to enhance surgical planning and minimize reoperation rates in breast cancer patients.
