Oncoplastic breast surgery – a pictorial classification system for surgeons and radiation oncologists (OPSURGE)

ANZ Journal of Surgery, Volume 94, Issue 12, Page 2140-2149, December 2024.
Changes to the tumour bed following oncoplastic surgery complicate the administration of adjuvant radiotherapy. A framework for tumour bed classification is proposed (OPSURGE) to aid communication between oncoplastic surgeons and radiation oncologists, particularly when using a boost dose to the primary tumour site. Abstract Introduction Changes to the

Can the risk of secondary cancer induction after breast conserving therapy be reduced using intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) with low-energy x-rays?

Radiation Oncology, 2011
Background Radiation induced secondary cancers are a rare but severe late effect after breast conserving therapy. Intraoperative radiotherapy (IORT) is increasingly used during breast conserving surgery.
