Breast Reconstruction Patient Baseline Data from 2011-2014

505 participants' baseline visit data from a prospective IRB-approved study at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center. The study enrolled adult female breast cancer patients at various stages of reconstruction between 2011 and 2014. Data was collected by Haoqi Wang and is hosted by the Texas Data Repository.

Use Cases

• Analyzing patient characteristics and treatment stages based on the described baseline visit data.
• Modeling factors influencing surgical decision-making based on the described study of breast reconstruction options.
• Studying longitudinal outcomes in cancer care based on the prospective study design mentioned in the description.

Strengths

• Data from 505 participants provides a substantial sample size for analysis.
• Prospective, IRB-approved study design suggests structured data collection.
• Specific time range (2011-2014) and single institution (MD Anderson Cancer Center) provide clear context.

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download.
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment for certain modeling tasks.
• Data reflects the patient population of a single, specialized cancer center, which may limit generalizability.
