About this trial
The investigators aim to compare the incidence rates of seroma (fluid collection) and hematoma (blood clot) following breast cancer surgery between the conventional non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Ketorolac and MAXIGESIC. The investigators seek to determine the complication rates in patients receiving MAXIGESIC post-surgery, hypothesizing that the higher dosage of ibuprofen in MAXIGESIC compared to Ketorolac will result in lower complication rates.

Trial population
Among patients who underwent breast cancer surgery at Seoul National University Hospital from January 1, 2023 to December 31, 2023, 127 patients were prescribed ketorolac and wore compression dressings. The number of patients was calculated to be approximately 60 to collect basic data to confirm the feasibility of conducting the main study.
