Could Breast-Conserving surgery be safe for women with multiple tumors?

This study looks at whether breast-conserving surgery (removing only the tumor, not the whole breast) is safe for women diagnosed with multifocal or multicentric breast cancer—meaning they have two or more tumors in one breast. Researchers will follow 100 adult women for at least 3 years after surgery, tracking how often the cancer comes back in the same breast, any complications, and how satisfied patients feel with their appearance and quality of life. All participants receive standard treatments like radiation and medication as needed, and the goal is to see if this less invasive approach works as well as mastectomy for these patients.
