Ranks indicate the probability to be the best treatment, the second best, the third best, and so on, among the 11 surgical treatments. BCS+ALND = breast-conserving surgery+axillary lymph node dissection; BCS+ALND+RT = breast-conserving surgery+axillary lymph node dissection+radiotherapy; BCS+ANS+RT = breast-conserving surgery+axillary node sample+radiotherapy; BCS+SLNB = breast-conserving surgery+sentinel lymph node biopsy; BCS+SLNB+ART+RT = breast-conserving surgery+sentinel lymph node biopsy+axillary radiotherapy+radiotherapy; BCS+SLNB+IORT = breast-conserving surgery+sentinel lymph node biopsy+intraoperative radiotherapy. BCS+SLNB+RT = breast-conserving surgery+sentinel lymph node biopsy+radiotherapy; DFS = disease-free survival; M = mastectomy; M+ALND = mastectomy+axillary lymph node dissection; M+ALND+RT = mastectomy+axillary lymph node dissection+radiotherapy; M+RT = mastectomy+radiotherapy; OS = overall survival.

The possibility of being the best treatment, the second best, the third best, and so on, among the 11 surgical treatments was more than 10% for OS.

The possibility of being the best treatment, the second best, the third best, and so on, among the 11 surgical treatments was more than 10% for DFS.
