Protocol summary

Study aim
Prevalence of complications and aesthetic results of whole breast adjuvant radiotherapy after breast conservation surgery in early breast cancer patients with hypofractionated external beam radiotherapy with intraoperative boost and conventional external beam radiotherapy with external boost
Design
In this study, patients will be assigned to either conventional or hypofractionated radiotherapy groups (34 patients each) according to the physician's opinion for adjuvant radiotherapy (non-random)
Settings and conduct
At Rasool Akram and Khatam Al-Anbia Hospitals, patients with early breast cancer after breast conservation surgery will receive conventional external radiation therapy with conventional boost dose or hypofractionated radiation therapy with intraoperative boost dose
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Inclusion criteria are pathologically confirmed breast cancer, age greater than 35 years, tumor size less than 5 centimeters, absence of nodal involvement or involvement of lesser than 3 nodes and margins without tumor involvement in postoperative pathology. Exclusion criteria are in-situ carcinoma without invasive component, tumoral adhesion to thoracic wall or inflammatory carcinoma, Karnofsky performance score<70, history of radiotherapy of chest wall, multiple breast masses greater than 5 centimeters apart, history of connective tissue diseases, previous chronic pulmonary disease, distant metastasis, large breast and pregnancy.
Intervention groups
In the conventional group: after breast conservation surgery, whole breast radiotherapy will be delivered externally with total dose of 50 gray plus boost does of 10 gray to tumor bed. In the hypofractionated group, 10 gray of intraoperative radiotherapy will be performed during surgery and then 42.56 gray of whole breast radiotherapy will be delivered externally.
Main outcome variables
Skin complications; cosmetic results
