Abstract Background: Surgical treatment of breast cancer, the most frequent cancer in women, is deeply changed in the last years turning towards a progressive minimally invasion, both in extend of demolition and in axillary dissection completeness. This is due to the flexibility of the concept of radicality that today is taylored on the patient, rather than on the disease; If oncologic radicality is preserved, a less invasive operation on the breast is mandatory. In the era of mini-invasive surgery, a patient may ask for an aesthetic care without any additional health risk.Methods: In this article, we compared two groups of 75 consecutive patients undergoing conservative surgery for early stage breast cancer; the two groups were randomized for standard quadrantectomy and totally subcutaneous quadrantectomy. Statistical analysis was carried out for comparing data.Results: No difference in oncologic outcome was found with the different surgical procedures; the length of hospital stay and the incidence of late breast deformities were significantly less in subcutaneous quadrantectomy group. Conclusions: We conclude that, in early breast cancer, a totally subcutaneous surgical procedure of resection is feasible and safe and ensures an absolutely better aesthetical result, that involves patient’s quality of life.
