Variation in surgical treatment by body mass index in patients with invasive lobular carcinoma of the breast
Overweight/obese BMI patients with ILC underwent different surgical interventions compared to those with lower BMI. While initial BCS rates were similar, overweight/obese patients had higher oncoplastic surgery rates in BCS and lower reconstruction rates in mastectomy. Further research is needed to understand BMI's impact on surgical decisions and outcomes in ILC.
