The aim of this study was to investigate the trends of axillary lymph node evaluation in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) patients treated with breast-conserving therapy (BCT) and to identify the clinicopathological predictors of axillary evaluation. DCIS patients treated with BCT in 2006-2015 at our institute were retrospectively included in the analysis. Patients were categorized into three groups: sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), and non-evaluation.

Materials And Methods: Fifteen breast anthropomorphic parameters of 605 Chinese female patients were collected prospectively. Breast ptosis status was scaled by two methods and breast volume was calculated according to a modified formula of BREAST-V.
The aim of the study was to review the surgical trends in breast cancer treatment in China over the past 15 years and to explore the possible factors related to the choice of surgical modality.The medical records of 18,502 patients with unilateral early stage breast cancer who underwent surgery from January 1999 to December 2013 at our institute were retrospectively reviewed. The utilization of different surgical modalities and the associated clinicopathological factors were analyzed.

- The study aimed to evaluate the current state of breast reconstruction in China, particularly after mastectomy for breast cancer, analyzing data from 951 reconstruction cases over 15 years.
- The results showed a shift towards prosthesis-based reconstruction, which became the most common method, alongside significant use of abdominal and latissimus dorsi flap techniques.
- Despite the increase in procedures, the overall rates of local-regional recurrence were low, indicating effective management and treatment outcomes for patients undergoing reconstruction.
Background: The aim of this study was to investigate the current surgical management strategy for bilateral breast cancer (BBC) patients and to assess the changes in this strategy in China.
Methods: This is a retrospective review of all patients with early-stage BBC who underwent surgical treatment at the Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center between June 2007 and June 2014.
Results: A total of 15,337 patients with primary breast cancer were identified.
