Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
During the last fifty years, we have witnessed a revolution in the field of breast cancer management. Therapeutic de-escalation, which has been seen in all areas of treatment, is especially visible in the case of surgical treatment, which has moved to precision treatments based on patient and tumor characteristics.
It has been replaced by less invasive procedures, and technical and technological advances change the way of facing surgical treatment of the breast and axilla.
This Special Issue of Cancers aims to review and update the surgical treatment of breast cancer through several articles focused on different aspects of the surgical technique and its relationship with technological advances and the relationship of surgery with other therapeutic and diagnostic modalities.
Dr. Antonio Piñero-Madrona
