Surgical breast cancer treatment has evolved from radical mastectomies to less deforming options like partial mastectomy and breast conservation. Advances in mammography have increased early detection of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS), favoring breast-sparing approaches.

Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Breast Cancer Research

Background:

  • The surgical management of breast cancer has undergone significant transformation over the past three decades.
  • Traditional Halsted radical mastectomy is largely replaced by less invasive surgical techniques.
  • Increased mammographic screening has led to earlier detection of breast cancers, including ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS).

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review the evolution of surgical treatment strategies for breast cancer.
  • To highlight the shift towards breast-conserving surgeries.
  • To discuss the impact of mammography on the diagnosis and treatment of early-stage breast cancer and DCIS.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical surgical trends in breast cancer treatment.

  • Analysis of current surgical options for different stages of breast cancer.
  • Discussion of the role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy and mammography in surgical decision-making.

    • Main Results:

    • Partial mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection is a standard alternative for stage 1 and 2 breast cancer.
    • Breast conservation is increasingly utilized for advanced tumors with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
    • Mammography facilitates the detection of DCIS, often managed with breast-conserving surgery.

    Conclusions:

    • Modern breast cancer surgery prioritizes less deforming procedures.
    • Breast conservation, often combined with chemotherapy, is a key strategy for various tumor stages.
    • Early detection through mammography supports breast-sparing surgical interventions for DCIS and early-stage cancers.
