Abstract:

Objective

To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of free dermal fat graft (FDFG) in breast conserving surgery (BCS).

Methods

A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinicopathological data and follow-up results of 39 patients who underwent FDFG-assisted BCS in the Liuzhou People’s Hospital from July 2016 to December 2019. Postoperative complications and appearance of the breast were evaluated.

Results

The median weight of FDFG in 39 patients was 98 g (76-135 g), the median weight of removed breast tissue was 81 g (60-114 g) and the median operative time was 245 min (215-305 g). All the FDFG survived. The incidence of postoperative complications was 12.8% (5/39), including 2 cases of fat liquefaction, 1 case of fat liquefaction combined with incision necrosis and infection, 1 case of hematoma and 1 case of poor incision healing at the abdominal wall donor site. The objective and subjective evaluation of postoperative breast appearance was excellent in 35 cases (89.7%) and 36 cases (92.3%), respectively. All patients were followed up for 2 to 43 months, median 24 months. One patient had local recurrence, 5 patients had distant metastasis and no death occurred.

Conclusion

The application of FDFG in BCS is feasible, with potentials in increasing the breast-conserving rate and improving cosmetic outcome.
