Purpose: In addition to the oncological results, cosmetic results are very important to cancer patients. Currently, the use of oncoplastic surgery is an emerging approach. In this study, we examined the clinical outcomes of the use of a corrective procedure with an absorbable implant, a Vicryl mesh®, as compared with the use of conventional breast conserving surgery (BCS). Methods: Fifty six patients who completed questionnaire were enrolled in the study. For 33 cases, BCS was performed concurrently with the use of a Vicryl mesh and for the other 23 cases, conventional BCS alone was performed. Contraindications of the use of corrective procedure were a patient age over 60 year, diabetes, neoadjuvant chemotherapy and a previous excisional biopsy performed on the same breast. Patients rated their cosmetic outcomes by use of a four point scale. Results: For one of 34 cases, the Vicryl mesh was removed due to infection and this patient was excluded from the study. Twenty seven of the remaining 33 patients (82%) who underwent the corrective procedure with Vicryl mesh were satisfied with their outcome. For patients that received conventional BCS only ten of 23 patients (43%) were satisfied with their outcome (p=0.05). Patient age, body mass index (BMI) and tumor location did not affect the cosmetic outcomes of the corrective procedure. When the resection area of the breast was 40-70㎠ , 88% of the patients were satisfied with their outcome. Conclusion: This study suggested that the use of Vicryl mesh correction was superior to the use of conventional BCS alone for cosmesis. This method appears to provide a satisfactory outcome for oncoplastic surgery of the breast.
