A retrospective comparative cohort study of SEER database analysis of the prognostic value of breast-conserving surgery and mastectomy in patients with multifocal multicenter breast cancer.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The prognosis of multifocal multicentric breast cancer (MIBC) was related to many factors, and there are different recommendations for surgical approaches. We compare the effects of breast-conserving surgery (BCS) and mastectomy on the survival of multifocal multicenter breast cancer female patients.

Methods

A total of 38,164 female patients with pathologically confirmed multifocal multicenter invasive breast cancer from 2000 to 2018 in the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results (SEER) database were extracted, and the effects of different factors on the survival of these patients were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into a BCS group and a mastectomy group, and the differences of breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) and overall survival (
