CanSORT Satisfaction with Breast Cosmetic Outcome and BREAST-Q Satisfaction with Breast scores

	CanSORT* (n = 477†)			BREAST-Q‡,§ (n = 451‖)
	n	Mean (95% CI)	P value	n	Mean (95% CI)	P value
Lump + WBI	107	3.40 (3.14–3.67)	Referent	104	60.00 (53.04–66.95)	Referent
Lump + Brachy	101	3.77 (3.54–4.00)	.007	98	66.95 (59.85–74.04)	.03
Lump alone	74	3.80 (3.50–4.09)	.045	71	67.82 (57.48–78.17)	.12
Mast alone	87	3.11 (2.83–3.40)	.06	82	59.27 (51.83–66.72)	.83
Mast + RT	108	3.01 (2.77–3.25)	.006	96	50.24 (43.62–56.85)	.001

Abbreviations: CanSORT = Cancer Surveillance and Outcomes Research Team; CI = confidence interval; Lump alone = lumpectomy plus endocrine therapy alone; Lump + Brachy = lumpectomy plus brachytherapy; Lump + WBI = lumpectomy plus whole-breast irradiation; Mast alone = mastectomy alone; Mast + RT = mastectomy plus radiation therapy.

^*The final model for the CanSORT instrument was adjusted for Charlson Comorbidity Index.

^†Patients were included if they had ≥1 nonmissing response to the CanSORT instrument.

^‡The final model for BREAST-Q Satisfaction with Breast was adjusted for race, Charlson Comorbidity Index, and patient-reported endocrine therapy.

^§CanSORT and BREAST-Q satisfaction scores were highly correlated with each other (Spearman coefficient = 0.8, P < .001).

^‖Patients were included if they had ≥50% nonmissing responses; missing responses were assigned a value based on the mean of the nonmissing responses (in accordance with BREAST-Q scoring tables).
