Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Surgical Complications
Outcomes: • Rates of complications (e.g., Haematoma, Seroma, Infection, Delayed Wound healing, Fat necrosis, Flap loss, etc). Measures: • Complication rates stratified by severity (e.g., Clavien-Dindo classification).
Within 30 days of surgery
Secondary Outcomes (4)
Oncological Clearance
From enrolment until the date of re-operation within 12 months of first surgery, or the end of study, whichever came first.
Revisional surgery
From enrolment until the date of revision within 36 months of surgery, or the end of study, whichever came first.
Oncological: Recurrence
From enrolment until the date of recurrence, or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months
Oncological: Survival
From enrolment until the date of death, or the end of study, whichever came first, assessed up to 36 months
Other Outcomes (2)
Patient-reported outcomes: Patient satisfaction and quality of life
Pre-operative, Post-operative and Post-radiotherapy (6 months).
Patient-reported outcomes: Upper extremity dysfunction
Pre-operative, Post-operative and Post-radiotherapy (6 months).
Eligibility Criteria
Women over the age of 18 years who would have been offered all options (simple wide local excision, therapeutic mammaplasty, mastectomy with or without immediate whole breast reconstruction)
You may qualify if:
- Patients undergoing partial breast reconstruction using CWPF for primary breast cancer
- Delayed correction of breast deformity following previous BCS
- Each surgeon is to have performed a minimum of 10 CWPFs
- Each centre anticipates completing a minimum of 10/year
You may not qualify if:
- Patients undergoing volume displacement BCS
- Patients undergoing mastectomy +/- immediate breast reconstruction
