Immunosuppressive agents are the main treatment options for idiopathic granulomatous mastitis (IGM). However, in some patients, the remaining large pouch and seroma may cause recurrence and severe deformity. Oncoplastic breast surgery (OBS) techniques can be used when surgery is required. In this study, surgical results of the patients histopathologically diagnosed with IGM who underwent any of the OBS techniques between 2016 and 2020 were evaluated. Patient characteristics, surgical indications, and technical details of the surgery were recorded. Eighteen patients who underwent wide excision combined with the OBS technique were included in the study. Surgery was performed owning to persistent disease ( n  = 12), recurrence ( n  = 3), and patient preference ( n  = 3). No major complications occurred after the OBS technique. None of the patients had recurrence at the surgical site. When surgery is indicated in patients with IGM, successful results can be obtained with acceptable complication rates by using the simplest and easiest applicable OBS techniques, including volume displacement technique.
