Abstract

Breast conservation surgery (BCS) is the preferred surgical treatment modality for eligible breast cancer patients. Oncological safety and aesthetic outcomes remain the primary objective of breast conservation surgery. Positive margin status following BCS needs revision surgery, which leads to increased patient anxiety, cost of treatment and delay in start of adjuvant treatment. We evaluated the significance and accuracy of intraoperative frozen section assessment of cavity shave margins (IOFSA) in patients undergoing BCS.
