Patients with breast cancer (BC) may develop locoregional recurrence alone or with distant metastases. Results of previous studies discussing the benefit of local surgery among patients with chest wall disease were controversial. Whether surgical reduction for chest wall disease could influence survival outcome is still a question. The objective of this study was to compare overall survival (OS) in patients with recurrence involving the chest wall who did or did not undergo surgical reduction after previous treatment of the primary BC to explore the role of surgical reduction.
