title: [Tumor-adapted oncoplastic mastopexy and reduction-plasty].
abstract: Reduction mammaplasties can be performed--if contraindications are respected--as oncoplastic operations. They have the advantage that the lump has clear margins and is surrounded by a thick layer of healthy tissue. This works only under the condition that the right type of the different mammaplasties is chosen as to cancer site, which guarantees that the cancer part of the breast will be removed ("landmap of removed breast tissue"). The axillary cavity must be cleared and the oncoplastic (reconstructed) breast be irradiated with 50 Gy. The mastopexia (breastlifting) is less apt to be used as an oncoplastic operation, as the removed tissue is rather skin and subcutaneous fatty tissue than the breast gland itself.
