Quantitative variables were described by mean ± standard deviation. Categorical variables were described as n (%). Group differences were compared using the ANOVA. Percentage totals may not add to 100% due to rounding. *, 2 cases of carcinoma in situ were not included in tumor grade, vascular invasion, neural invasion and molecular typing. One case of papillary carcinoma and 1 case of invasive carcinoma <0.1 cm were not included in tumor grade and molecular typing. One case of invasive carcinoma =0.1 cm was not included in tumor grade. BMI, body mass index; UOQ, upper outer quadrant; OQT, outer quadrant transition; LOQ, lower outer quadrant; LQT, lower quadrant transition; LIQ, lower inner quadrant; IQT, inner quadrant transition; UIT, upper inner transition; UQT, upper quadrant transition; IDC, invasive ductal carcinoma; ILC, invasive lobular carcinoma; CIS, carcinoma in situ; HR, hormone receptor; HER2, human epidermal growth factor 2; ICG, indocyanine green; ANOVA, one-way analysis of variance.
