No milk fistulae were observed. Nearly all complications were managed in the outpatient setting. Breast biopsies and oncologic surgery should not be delayed in pregnant or postpartum patients. @crgcrsn @KellyKhunt @HenryKuerer @puneetsinghmd @FedraFallahian

Amazing presentation by T32 fellow Dr Jen Chen @JenChenMD at #ASBrS2025 @ASBrS! Complication rates after biopsy or oncologic surgery in pregnant and postpartum patients are low, and not impacted by lactational status. Rates are comparable to the general population.

Strong presentation by @MDAndersonNews BSO fellow Dr Tori Hunyh @THuynhMD at #ASBrS2025 @ASBrS. #pCR is associated with superior oncologic outcomes. In the setting of residual disease, LRR after BCT differs by subtype. @KellyKhunt @crgcrsn @HenryKuerer @puneetsinghmd
