“…Recent guidelines recommend that PT > 3 cm be resected with free margins ≥1 cm, with no need for axillary staging; lumpectomy may be indicated for small tumors, because it allows preservation and mammary function [3,4,17,20]. Some studies suggest that patients with benign and borderline PTs >5–10 cm or with other risk factors for recurrence and metastasis, malignant PTs, more than three recurrences or positive resection margin, or age above 50 years, should be subjected to mastectomy, preferably followed by immediate reconstruction [3,9,18]. Because our patient had progressive, borderline and more than three recurrent tumors, skin-reducing mastectomy on the right was chosen, removing all tumor mass, adjacent fibrotic tissue, and cutaneous scar tissue resulting from previous procedures, providing free and wide margins, as recommended [3,4,20].…”
