Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2000
Early operable breast cancer is a potentially curable disease. However, a substantial number of patients are at risk for systemic recurrence and death. Breast conservation therapy (BCT) should be considered the preferred surgical option for most women with early operable breast cancer.

The real importance of fibrocystic disease is related to the problem of differential diagnosis of benign

The surgery of early breast cancer
Current Opinion in Oncology, 1992This review highlights important issues for surgeons treating early breast cancer. The optimal use of ovarian ablation, the value and timing of radiotherapy for breast preservation, and axillary dissection are considered. New information on the importance of local surgery, even for older women, and the biology of small (up to 10 mm), screen-detected ...
