Abstract:
Objective To discuss curative results of breast-conserving therapy for early primary breast cancer. Methods Fifty-two patients with stage Ⅰ~Ⅱ breast cancer(solitary tumor ≤ 3 cm in size) underwent local lumpectomy and axillary lymph node dissection from March 2000 to September 2005 in this hospital.After operation,the radiation therapy,chemotherapy,and endocrine therapy were given.Results The breast specimens were pathologically examined and no infiltrating margin was found.The rate of good cosmetic effects was 86.5%(45/52).Follow-up examinations in 50 cases for 10~36 months(median,16 months) found no local recurrence and distant metastasis.Conclusions The cosmetic and clinical results of breast-conserving surgery for stage Ⅰ~Ⅱ primary breast cancer are satisfactory.
