Intraoperative ultrasound and oncoplastic combined approach: an additional tool for the oncoplastic surgeon to obtain tumor-free margins in breast conservative surgery—a 2-year single-center prospective study

We present our experience with intraoperative ultrasound as an adjunctive tool to guide breast surgeons to improve margin-free management of neoplastic breast lesions in patients undergoing oncoplastic surgery
