Abstract Background: Immediate breast reconstruction with tissue expander in patients who were expected to receive adjuvant therapy, such as chemotherapy or radiotherapy, has been a topic of debate. Postoperative complications from tissue expander procedures can delay the timing of adjuvant treatment and subsequently increase the probability of recurrence. The purpose of this study was to identify the impact of chemotherapy and radiotherapy on postoperative complications in patients who underwent immediate reconstruction (IR) using tissue expander.Method: We conducted a retrospective study of 1,081 breast cancer patients who underwent mastectomy and IR using tissue expander insertion between 2012 and 2017 in Samsung Medical Center. The patients were divided into two groups based on complications (complication group vs. no complication group). The complication group had 59 patients (5.5%) and the no complication group had 1,022 patients (94.5%). Results: In univariate analysis, lymphovascular invasion (LVI), pathologic N stage, pathologic prognostic stage, axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), adjuvant radiotherapy, and adjuvant chemotherapy were significantly associated with postoperative complications. In multivariate analysis, however, higher pathologic N stage was significantly associated with postoperative complications. Chemotherapy or radiotherapy were not risk factors for postoperative complications.Conclusions: IR with tissue expander after mastectomy may be a treatment option even when the patients are expected to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy. These results will aid preoperative counseling to patients who are concerned about the complications of IR caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy.

Complication group was regarded to have surgical removal or conservative treatment based on clinical findings such as infection, capsular contracture, seroma, hematoma, rupture, malposition, tissue viability, or cosmetic problem. The complication group had 59 patients (5.5%) and the no complication group had 1,022 patients (94.5%). Results: In univariate analysis, adjuvant radiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy were significantly associated with postoperative complications. In multivariate analysis, however, only higher pathologic N stage was significantly associated with postoperative complications (p < 0.001). Chemotherapy (p = 0.775) or radiotherapy (p = 0.825) were not risk factors for postoperative complications.Conclusions: IR with tissue expander after mastectomy may be a treatment option even when the patients are expected to receive adjuvant chemotherapy or radiotherapy. These results will aid patients who are concerned about the complications of IR caused by chemotherapy or radiotherapy determine whether or not to have IR.

4046 Background: Adjuvant chemotherapy (AC) in patients with stage III colon adenocarcinoma prevents recurrences and improves survival. Although most trials mandate initiation of AC within 8 weeks of resection, the impact of timing of AC is still not clear with few studies reporting conflicting results. We hypothesized that AC commenced within 60 days of resection would increase survival in patients with stage II and III colon cancer. Methods: Patients with newly diagnosed stage II or III colon adenocarcinoma who received fluoropyrimidine based AC in two centers (a private cancer center and a large community hospital) between 2000 and 2007 were included into analysis. Time to adjuvant chemotherapy (TTC), overall survival (OS), and relapse-free survival (RFS) were calculated from the surgery date. Patients were dichotomized into early- (group 1) and late-treatment (group 2) groups using the TTC of 60 days. The demographic, clinical, and laboratory characteristics of patients in two groups were compared using chi-square and t-test. Kaplan-Meier survival curves were constructed employing univariate log-rank test to assess the effects of demographic and clinical characteristics on OS. Then the impact of TTC on OS and RFS was analyzed using a Cox proportional hazard model incorporating the significant factors found in the univariate analysis. Results: 190 patients were eligible for the study (median age: 57 yrs [range 14–84]). 116 patients (61%) were female and 35 patients (18%) had stage II disease. Median TTC was 49 days (range 24–196) and median follow-up was 143 weeks (range 9–451). 134 patients (70%) received AC within 60 days of surgery (group 1) and 56 (30%) received after (group 2). The only difference between the two groups was the higher N stage in group 1. The treating hospital and the N stage were found to be the factors affecting the OS in univariate analysis. Five-year OS for group I was 75.2% as compared to 61.3% for group II (HR 2.11, CI: 1.00–4.45, p=0.049). Five-year RFS for group I was 65.7% as compared to 59.0% for group II (HR: 1.19, CI: 0.65–2.20, p=0.570). Conclusions: Delay of AC more than 60 days after resection is associated with inferior survival in stage II/III colon cancer. No significant financial relationships to disclose.

Abstract Background Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) was initially applied to locally advanced breast cancer to convert advanced lesions to an operable status. Currently, its application has been expanded to enhance overall oncological results, especially in patients with triple-negative or HER-2-positive breast cancer. With more NACT being applied, the role and impact of this approach on breast reconstruction needs to be determined. This study aimed to perform a complete reconstructive outcome analysis of patients receiving NACT who underwent immediate breast reconstruction. Methods A retrospective review of a single reconstructive surgeon’s immediate breast reconstructions performed from July 2008 to December 2018 was undertaken. The results were stratified by the use of NACT. Patient demographics, delivery of NACT, adjuvant treatment, incidence of surgical complications, and postoperative photographs were analyzed. Results A total of 269 patients were included. The mean follow-up was 46.3 months. Forty-six out of 269 patients received NACT and were included in the NACT group. The other patients were included in the non-NACT group. When implant-based reconstruction was planned, the NACT group had a higher rate of two-stage tissue expander-implant reconstruction than direct-to-implant reconstruction (p < 0.001). The requirement for postmastectomy radiotherapy was higher in the NACT group (p < 0.001). The surgical complication rates were similar between groups after adjusting for confounding factors. The objective aesthetic outcomes assessed by 6 plastic surgeons were also similar between groups. Conclusions Immediate breast reconstruction is a safe and reliable procedure, with an acceptable reconstructive complication rate and satisfactory aesthetic outcomes, for patients treated with NACT.

The Impact

Background. Data allowing to estimate the impact of postoperative radiotherapy on the possibility of prosthetic breast reconstruction with silicone implants or tissue expanders are mainly presented in single-level retrospective cohort studies. Material and methods. We searched for scientific papers in English published from January 1, 2000 to September 30, 2018 in the PubMed/MEDLINE database. The study parameters included demographic data, the method of breast reconstruction, information about adjuvant radiotherapy parameters, the incidence of postoperative complications. Results and discussion. Having studied the data about immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction with silicone implant or a tissue expander performed after mastectomy in 3,654 breast cancer patients. The complications after surgery were reported in 40% of all clinical observations. In 15% of cases, the specialists stopped the attempts to perform breast reconstruction. In general, the aesthetic results of immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction performed before postop radiotherapy are far from being perfect. Nevetheless, most patients are satisfied with them after the surgery. Conclusion. Adjuvant radiotherapy has a negative impact on the results of immediate prosthetic breast reconstruction after mastectomy. Despite this, the need for radiotherapy should not be regarded as an absolute contraindication for the immediate breast reconstruction with silicone implants and tissue expanders.
