Cancer, 1989
A review of publications on breast self-examination (BSE) up to the middle of 1991 showed that evidence supporting BSE has strengthened since 1989. BSE is associated with a smaller size of tumor at diagnosis and has the potential to reduce breast cancer mortality.

er, maternal grandmother, daughter, sister, or maternal aunts have had breast cancer, and the risk is still higher if several relatives have had the disease(8). A woman who has had a full-term baby by age 20 apparently develops a strong protection(2,8,9). Formerly, breastfeeding was believed to offer some prophylaxis against breast cancer, but this has

To the Editor.— The article by O'Malley and Fletcher 1 is a careful and comprehensive review of the literature on the efficacy of breast self-examination (BSE). Since we feel their ultimate conclusion that BSE should not be advocated as a screening procedure for breast cancer is inappropriate, we would like to discuss two main issues. The first issue

Few methods of breast-cancer detection can match in appeal that of breast self-examination. It is simple, self-generated, inexpensive, noninvasive and nonradiative. If used properly, learned well and practiced faithfully, it should uncover tumors that are still in an early stage and, thus, save lives.

Southern Medical Journal, 1990
Breast self-examination is an important, well-established method of cancer detection. Some authors disagree as to its value and regard physical examination by a physician as superior. Many women, however, do not have an annual physical examination, and the majority (80%) discover their own breast cancer.

SELF-EXAMINATION OF THE BREASTS
Journal of the American Medical Association, 1952A half-century of application of radical surgery, radiation, and hormones in the attack on breast cancer has shown all too clearly that these methods of treatment can make only a limited gain in the control of the disease. The plain fact is that breast carcinoma is easily curable by good surgery when the primary lesion is small and the disease is ...
