Thus, the chance of choosing the right treatment rate increases, the cost rate decreases, and the morbidity and mortality rates that may occur decrease. Undoubtedly, this process includes both the preoperative decision-making stage, the surgical procedure in the operating room, and the solution of the complications that may occur in the postoperative period. Teamwork is almost a necessity in order to make the right decision for the patient. This is the purpose of establishing a multidisciplinary tumor council. The multidisciplinary tumor council seeks to achieve the best results by addressing the patient's situation individually and discussing treatment recommendations. Poor teamwork results in more side effects and an increased complication rate. Presentations should be made to increase communication in the operating room at hospitals. All breast surgery specialists need to work together in a complementary way. © Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2021.en10.1007/978-3-030-73147-2_22info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBreast cancerChecklistCommunicationSurgical professionalismTreatmentBook Chapter2312442-s2.0-85159846241
