Abstract:
Breast conserving surgery has become the commonest surgery for breast cancer in Japan. And the cosmetic results have become more and more important. The main characteristics of endoscopy assisted surgery for breast cancer can realize radical resection and immediate reconstruction from a small skin incision and inconspicuous scars. Because the endoscopy-assisted surgery assures not only higher curativity but also better cosmetic results, the indications will increase more and more.
