Breast cancer is a disease requiring multidisciplinary management including surgery, medical and radiation oncology, radiology, pathology, nuclear medicine, genetic counseling, and psychological support. Each member of the team needs to be updated continuously on breast cancer treatment because of its rapidly changing nature. From the diagnostic procedures to operations and even in metastatic stages of breast cancer, surgeons play an essential part in multidisciplinary teams. After standard surgical options, oncoplastic breast surgery is rapidly becoming one of the most important surgical topics that should be learned by attending surgeons. The idea of writing this book stemmed from a collaboration between the European Academy of Senology (EAoS), European Institute of Oncology (IEO), Euro-Asian Society of Mastology (ESOMA), and SENATURK (Turkish Academy of Senology), which have been working together to promote better training in breast care for professionals. The book offers invaluable support for breast surgeons by covering critical and essential information in senology. It will also greatly benefit the other members of multidisciplinary teams, surgery residents, gynecologists, and plastic and reconstructive surgeons.

New in this edition are discussions of • the pros and cons of saline and silicone implants • solutions for post-lumpectomy cosmetic problems • new immediate-delayed reconstruction when post-mastectomy radiation may be required • the benefits and limitations of nipple-sparing mastectomy • considerations for direct-to-implant reconstruction • newly developed tissue flap procedures • who can best apply nipple and areola tattoos and why tattoos may not last • enriching fat with stem cells so it stays in the breast • patient-controlled tissue expansion • how insurance and health care reform affect reconstruction
