Text: On multivariate analysis, a larger breast volume was statistically significantly associated with the development of breast shrinkage assessed by serial photographs (odds ratio per litre increase in breast volume = 1. 98, 95 % confidence interval 1. 41, 2. 78 ; P < 0. 0005), telangiectasia (odds ratio = 3. 94, 95 % confidence interval 2. 49, 6. 24 ; P < 0. 0005), breast oedema (odds ratio = 3. 65, 95 % confidence interval 2. 54, 5. 24 ; P < 0. 0005) and pigmentation (odds ratio = 1. 75, 95 % confidence interval 1. 21, 2. 51 ; P = 0. 003).
