Breast conserving surgery (BCS) is increasingly offered to suitable patients diagnosed with early stage breast cancer. Occasionally the pathological margins on specimens following BCS are positive. The objective of this study is to assess the proportion of patients within our unit who required completion mastectomy after BCS and to determine if predictive factors could be identified to assist the breast surgeon identifying those patients at risk of positive margins following BCS.
