Endoscopic technology can reduce the surgical incision, and on the basis of ensuring tumor safety, effectively improve aesthetic outcomes and enhance patient satisfaction. Endoscopic breast-conserving surgery can offer benefits to scar appearance for patients with early breast cancer; however, for patients with tumors in the lower quadrant, the trauma of surgery should be carefully considered. Endoscopic breast reconstruction provides a preferred option for the patients underwent total mastectomy by reshaping a scarless breast. The choice of surgery should be considered by oncological safety, postoperative aesthetic effects, patient’s willingness, and medical conditions. The more high-quality clinical studies are needed to provide reference for decision-making. The development of endoscopic technology will provide better treatment options for patients with breast cancer.
