The study seeks to compare the single-incision lateral mammoplasty technique with the matrix rotation flap in patients with breast carcinoma. The primary outcome assessed is postoperative complications, while secondary outcomes include cosmetic appearance and patient satisfaction.
This study is designed to conduct a comprehensive comparison between two breast-conserving surgical techniques used in the treatment of breast carcinoma: the single-incision lateral mammoplasty and the matrix rotation flap. These procedures are employed to achieve both oncologic safety and aesthetic preservation in patients undergoing surgery for breast cancer.
The primary objective of the study is to evaluate and compare the incidence and nature of postoperative complications associated with each technique. This includes, but is not limited to, wound healing issues, infection rates, hematoma or seroma formation, and any need for reoperation.
Secondary objectives focus on assessing the cosmetic outcomes and the overall satisfaction of the patients post-surgery. Cosmetic evaluation will be conducted through both surgeon-assessed and patient-reported outcomes, utilizing standardized scoring systems and photographic documentation. Patient satisfaction will be measured through validated questionnaires designed to capture perceptions of body image, aesthetic results, and quality of life following the procedure.
By systematically analyzing these parameters, the study aims to determine which technique offers a more favorable balance of surgical safety, aesthetic quality, and patient satisfaction, thereby guiding clinical decision-making in breast-conserving surgery for breast carcinoma.

| proceduder surgery | Other | The single-incision lateral sulcus mammoplasty is a breast-conserving surgical technique that involves making a single incision along the lateral aspect of the inframammary fold or within the natural skin crease of the lateral sulcus. This approach provides direct access to the lateral quadrants of the breast, which are commonly affected in breast carcinoma, allowing for effective tumor excision while preserving the breast contour. In SILSM, the incision is carefully planned to align with natural anatomical lines, ensuring optimal cosmetic results and minimal visible scarring. Through this lateral access point, the surgeon performs both tumor resection and glandular reshaping. The technique often involves mobilization and rearrangement of the remaining breast tissue to fill the defect left by the tumor excision, thereby maintaining breast symmetry and volume. This techn |

| Technique surgery | Other | The matrix rotation flap is a versatile oncoplastic surgical technique employed in the reconstruction of partial breast defects following tumor excision. This method involves the creation of a rotational skin and glandular flap, mobilized from adjacent breast tissue, typically using an inferolateral or inferomedial pedicle. The flap is designed in a curvilinear or semicircular fashion, allowing it to rotate into the defect site while maintaining adequate vascular supply. The MRF technique is particularly useful for defects in the lower quadrants of the breast, where direct tissue advancement may be limited. The surgeon carefully outlines a skin paddle adjacent to the resection cavity and undermines the surrounding breast parenchyma. The flap is then rotated and inset into the tumor bed to fill the defect, with the skin paddle contributing to both volume replacement and skin resurfacing if required. This approach provides robust coverage of the surgical cavity, helps restore breast co |
