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).
