Abstract
Breast conservative therapy or breast conserving surgery refers to partial removal of breast tissue followed by radiotherapy. The radiotherapy can be delivered during the surgery as intraoperative or postoperative external radiotherapy. Therefore, various terminologies such as wide local excision, wide excision, lumpectomy, segmentectomy, quadrantectomy, or partial mastectomy can cause breast deformity in different degree. The main objective of reconstruction for these defects is to restore the natural breast appearance in terms of shape and volume without leaving a cavity or deformity in the breast.
