Summary

Evaluation of Tumor Bed Cavity Shaving as an Oncologically Safe Alternative to Frozen Section Analysis in Breast-Conserving Surgery and aim of study To assess the oncological safety and practicality of tumor bed cavity shaving also aims to evaluate its impact on operative time and overall cost.

Conditions

  • Early Stage Breast Cancer

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Tumor bed cavity shaving

feasible in centers lacking intraoperative pathological facilities. * Time saving (significantly reduces the overall operative time). * cost-effectiveness. * Technically simple (Easy to perform without the need for specialized equipment or advanced facilities). * it represents a suitable option in low- to medium-socioeconomic settings, where resources and advanced intraoperative support may be limited. * It is expected to demonstrate comparable oncological safety to Intraoperative Frozen Section Analysis (FSA) in achieving margin negativity with Significant reduction anticipated in Positive margin rates\&Re-excision frequency\&Operative duration and Overall procedural cost.
