Abstract

Background. Currently, after subcutaneous/skin-preserving mastectomies with simultaneous reconstruction in cancer of stages I–II, the need for radiation therapy is debatable, especially in the presence of favorable subtypes or when complete clinical regression is achieved after neoadjuvant polychemotherapy.

Materials and methods. A retrospective non-randomized study was conducted, which included 1135 breast cancer patients who received treatment at the P.A. Herzen Moscow State Medical Institute from 2014 to 2023, in all patients the surgical stage included subcutaneous/skinpreserving mastectomies with simultaneous reconstruction. The patients were divided into 2 groups – with and without radiation therapy.

Results. Relapses were analyzed by groups depending on the clinical and morphological features of tumors, with a detailed analysis of the data obtained.

Conclusion. Among patients I–IIA, In the stages of breast cancer after PME/CME with reconstruction included in the study, the risk of recurrence over 5 years was 4.3± 0.1% of cases. The recurrence in the group with radiation therapy was 2.5±0.6%, without radiation therapy 6.9±1.2% (p0.05), thus radiation therapy reduces the risk of recurrence by 4.4%. In our study, the following criteria were identified for the appointment of radiation therapy in the postoperative period: resection margin R1, luminal/non-luminal NONR2 positive type, rN1.
