Oncoplastic breast surgery is more likely to achieve superior aesthetic outcomes compared to lumpectomy alone.

Oncoplastic reduction mammoplasty (ORM) is a volume displacement oncoplastic technique that combines lumpectomy and reduction mammoplasty.

Data on aesthetic and quality-of-life (QoL) outcomes after ORM are scarce in the literature. Based on a literature review, this present study reports outcomes on the largest group of ORM patients to date.

A retrospective review was conducted of all patients who underwent ORM between 2011 and 2018 at a tertiary care centre.

Patients were excluded if no pedicle information was available or did not undergo post-operative radiotherapy.

All patients with available post-operative photographs were aesthetically evaluated by four blinded, independent investigators blinded based on breast symmetry, nipple symmetry, and overall appearance.
