Local Tissue Rearrangement
Oncoplastic Reduction Mammoplasty -Use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy -Breast conservation Indications - Minimal Skin Resection or Tumor within Wise Pattern - C-Cup Breast Size with ptosis or Small Tumor - D-Cup Breast size therapy (BCT) -Oncoplastic mammoplasty -Extends BCT option -Improved cosmetic results -Minimizes adverse effects of XRT SOBO 2012 Presentation

Total Skin Sparing Mastectomy
