Abstract

Among examined patients after breast-conserving surgery, 89.7% of people reported sexual dysfunction. Among all domains of FSFI, only the orgasm domain showed a statistically significant difference depending on the type of surgery performed. The QLQ-BR23 symptom scale revealed differences in areas: side-effects from treatment, breast-related discomfort, and sexual functioning and sexual enjoyment.
