    The current status of primary radiation therapy in the treatment of early breast cancer (1982)
    Springer
    Breast cancer research and treatment 2 (1982), S. 213-220 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-7217
    Keywords: adjuvant therapy ; breast preservation ; conservative surgery ; early breast cancer ; radiation therapy

    Topics: Medicine
    Notes: Summary Primary radiation therapy, usually with limited surgery, is being used increasingly as an alternative to mastectomy in patients with early breast cancer. Results so far appear similar in terms of local control and overall survival. Current questions on patient selection, extent of surgery, radiation therapy technique, possible long-term complications, and the role of axillary dissection and of adjuvant therapy are reviewed. Though many questions remain, it is hoped that this alternative will contribute to improved survival along with breast preservation for improved quality of life.

    Patients with early breast cancer benefit from effective axillary treatment (1985)
    Springer

    Notes: Summary We have reviewed the available clinical data on the benefit of axillary treatment in patients with early breast cancer. The results of these studies suggest that perhaps 5–10% of patients are cured by effective axillary treatment. We conclude that effective axillary treatment should still be considered an essential aspect of primary treatment.

    Current status of conservative surgery and radiotherapy as primary local treatment for early carcinoma of the breast (1985)
    Springer
    Breast cancer research and treatment 5 (1985), S. 245-255 
    Details
    ISSN: 1573-7217
    Keywords: conservative surgery ; early breast cancer ; mastectomy ; radiotherapy

    Notes: Summary Since it is now recognized that breast cancer is commonly a systemic disease at presentation, it is clear that local treatment is limited to providing local tumor control, and that effective systemic therapy is required for the eradication of micrometastatic disease. We here review the current status of conservative surgery and radiotherapy in the treatment of early breast cancer. Results from retrospective studies support the view that this combination is highly effective in achieving local control and maintaining good cosmetic results. Results at five and ten years from prospective trials indicate that survival using this approach is comparable to that of mastectomy. Though further follow-up is required, we do not believe that a large survival difference in favor of either approach will emerge.
