Abstract:
OPS techniques have many advantages over standard lumpectomies. They allow for immediate breast reshaping, helping to eliminate postoperative defects, and they offer wider resection possibilities. Level I OPS techniques are those employed when less than 20% of the breast volume is excised, and no mammoplasty is needed for reshaping. In this article, we present a level-1 rhomboid glandular rotational flaps (GRF) that can effectively treat any quadrant defect that involves excision of less than 20% of the breast volume in select patients. This paper provides details on patient selection, surgical technique, and potential complications associated with this procedure.
