Abstract:
To evaluate the effect of local resection plus axillary dissection in the treatment of early breast cancer, 112 cases of early breast cancer were divided into 2 groups: quadrant resection plus axillary dissection group(66 cases) and Halsted′s method group(46 cases).Their survival rate, local recurrence rate, metastasis rate,cosmetic effect of breast were observed for a prolonged period. The results showed that the 3,5,8 year survival rates in the first group were respectively 97 0%,87 9% and 71 2%. The 3,5,8 year survival rates in the second group were respectively 97 8%,80 5%,76 1%. The rate of local recurrence was 6 1% in the first group and 4 3% in the second group.The metastasis rate of the first group was 16 7%,and that of the second group was 21 6%.In 83 8% of patients in the first group,the breasts retained a satisfactory cosmetic form.It suggested that similar to the Halsted's method,the quadrant resection plus axillary dissection method is an ideal method to treat early breast cancer.
