Abstract

The aim of this study is to investigate the incidence, classification, as well as risk factors for postoperative complications, in such clinical practice by performing a comprehensive investigation of clinical data and providing meaningful evidence supporting breast cancer surgery treatment strategies. Inclusion criteria specified patients with stage I or stage II breast cancer who were undergoing neoadjuvant radiotherapy and planned for radical modified mastectomy. Exclusion criteria included any female patients with breast cancer complicated by additional factors, such as inflammatory conditions, immune system deficiencies like diabetes, human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), tuberculosis, or other malignancies, as well as those receiving preoperative chemotherapy. In this study, seromas were noted mainly in elderly patients, all of whom improved after multiple debridements. [...]seroma formation is still a multifactorial problem characterized by individual variations among patients.
