Abstract
This is a comment on the article by Elfgen et al. on the use of intraoperative radiotherapy in patients with ipsilateral breast cancer recurrence following breast conserving surgery. The achievement of acceptable breast preservation rates without compromising oncologic safety in breast cancer patients is very important. Therefore, we wish to highlight a significant issue regarding axillary surgery treatment plan of their study group.
