Abstract :
Background&Objectives: Seroma, is the most frequent post operative complication after east cancer surgery/modified radical mastectomy (MRM), developing in approximately 30% of cases. Aim of the study was to establish an association between various risk factors of seroma formation and to know whether the risk factors act independently or by synergism. Methods: Patients with east cancer undergoing Modified Radical Mastectomy were included in the study. The proportions were compared using Chi–square test of significance and the student „t‟ test was used to determine the statistical difference. The data was analyzed using SPSS package. Results: Four out of 30 patients, accounting for 13.3 percent, developed seroma. The mean age of patients who developed seroma was 50.50+18.065 (32 – 66) years. The mean area of raw surface in seroma group was 0.1350+0.01291 (0.12 – 0.15) mm2 and the mean volume of east and axilla in the seroma group was 1562.50+170.171 (1400–1800) ml, surface area and volume where statistically significant as compared to patients without seroma formation. Other variables studied had no statistical significance with respect to seroma formation. Conclusion: The factors influencing seroma formation following modified radical mastectomy for carcinoma east were found to be area of the raw surface created on the anterior chest wall, axilla and lateral chest wall and inner surface of the resulting flaps – larger the surface area, higher the seroma rate and volume of the east and axillary fatty–lymphatic tissue – greater the volume, higher the seroma rate.
