Abstract

Despite enough evidence supporting equal outcomes of Breast Conservation Therapy (BCT) and Modified Radical Mastectomy (MRM) in early breast, rates of mastectomy are still high in most of the regions of India barring few metro cities. Other than clinical parameters and availability of resources, several other sociodemographic factors and personal beliefs play a very vital role in decision making about type of surgery by Indian patients. This study aimed to investigate the factors which influenced the surgical choice in patients eligible for BCS.
