Oncoplastic breast surgery has evolved the surgical
treatment of breast cancer over the past two decades. This practice still lacks

control, timing of adjuvant treatments and cost-effectiveness. Our case series
investigates the effects of a reduced surgical complexity on cosmetic results
and quality of life.
