Background: Oncoplastic breast conserving surgery (OP-BCS) is becoming increasingly popular to avoid mastectomy or optimize cosmetic outcomes of breast conserving surgery (BCS). Few studies have compared clinical outcomes and patient-reported outcomes (PROs) of OP-BCS to conventional BCS (C-BCS). This study aims to compare clinical outcomes and short and long-term PROs after OP-BCS and C-BCS in a large prospective breast cancer cohort.

If conservative treatment fails, totally extraperitoneal (TEP) repair is effective in pain relief. Because there are only few long-term follow-up results available, this study was designed to evaluate effectiveness of TEP repair in IRGP-patients years after the initial procedure.

We aimed to evaluate the experiences of patients with breast cancer receiving pre-test genetic counseling from a non-genetic healthcare professional (i.e.

- During the second wave of SARS-CoV-2, a study assessed the quality of life (QoL), physical functioning, and psychosocial well-being in breast cancer patients, following an observed decline during the first wave.
- Results indicated that patient-reported QoL and well-being remained stable or improved, with a notable decrease in emotional loneliness.
- The analysis involved comparing data from breast cancer patients across both waves and a similar non-cancer population, highlighting the resilience of patients during the pandemic.
