Key Points

This research aims to assess the cosmetic outcomes of different oncoplastic surgery (OPS) techniques in breast cancer patients.
Evaluated cosmetic outcomes over eleven years across two tertiary referral centers.
Used a surgical algorithm for oncoplastic surgeries regardless of tumor size and location.
Compared cosmetic ratings between different OPS techniques, notably round block and batwing.
Round block approach received the highest cosmetic ratings among type II OPS techniques.
Batwing technique resulted in the least favorable cosmetic outcomes.

Abstract

The surgical algorithm used in this study facilitated acceptable aesthetic outcomes regardless of tumor size and location. Among type II OPS techniques, the round block approach yielded the highest cosmetic ratings, while the batwing technique produced the least favorable results.
