ABSTRACT
Background and purpose: Many factors have impacts on the surgery approach of breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to analyze the influence factors of breast reconstruction for patients with breast cancer, focusing on the relationship between travel distance and breast reconstruction. Methods: Retrospective review of all female breast cancer patients staging 0-Ⅱ who underwent unilateral or bilateral mastectomy with or without breast reconstruction at Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from 1999 to 2015 was conducted in the study. Analysis of travel distance and breast reconstruction rate was performed. Results: Non-Shanghai patients have higher breast reconstruction rate after mastectomy compared with Shanghai patients (6.1% vs 4.5%, P<0.001). Travel distance may have an influence on the breast reconstruction rate (P=0.035). Univariate regression analysis showed that the increase of travel distance was the predictor of breast reconstruction, and that the increase of age or body mass index (BMI), or the later TNM stage had a negative correlation with breast reconstruction (P<0.001). Multiple regression analysis demonstrated that the increase of age or BMI, or the later TNM stage was the independent predictor of the refusal of breast reconstruction (P<0.001), but travel distance was not (P>0.05). No significant correlation between the travel distance and breast reconstruction types was indicated. Negative correlation was observed between age and travel distance (P<0.001). Conclusion: Age, BMI and tumor stage are the main influence factors of breast reconstruction, while travel distance shows a linear correlation with it.
