Because the average breast size of Korean women is not as large as that of western women, it is not so easy to apply the oncoplastic volume displacement technique. However, we have tried to use volume displacement techniques that work well with small-breasted women. In this study, we report the usefulness of displacement techniques in the superiorly located cancers with small- to moderate-sized breasts. Between September 2006 and August 2009, 58 women were treated for superiorly located cancers. All patients who were selected had small- to moderate-sized breasts and small to moderate breast defects. They were divided into 3 groups. The groups were split based on the distance from the nipple-areolar complex, which are as follows: near, intermediate, and far. Their mean age was 46 and the average follow-up interval was 21 months. Median weight of the specimen on the tumor side was 84 g (range, 29-140 g). The various surgical techniques used were the "round block" technique (n = 8) and "batwing mastopexy" (n = 4) for near lesions; "tennis racket" method (n = 32) and "rotational flap" (n = 8) for intermediate lesions; and "parallelogram mastopexy lumpectomy" (n = 6) for far lesions. There were 4 complications (nipple-areolar complex partial necrosis, radiation burn, and 2 wound dehiscence). No local recurrences have been observed and a majority of the patients were satisfied with cosmetic results. Oncoplastic volume displacement techniques in superiorly located breast cancers for Korean patients with small- to moderate-sized breast are reliable and should be considered in the case of breast conserving surgery (BCS).
