Angiosarcoma of the Breast Following Segmental Mastectomy Complicated by Lymphedema

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1987
A patient is discussed who had angiosarcoma of her lymphedematous right breast develop four years after segmental mastectomy for infiltrating ductal carcinoma. The lymphedema developed and persisted after an indolent and recurrent postoperative infection.

Cutaneous Angiosarcoma of the Breast After Segmental Mastectomy and Radiation Therapy

Archives of Surgery, 1992
Angiosarcoma of the breast is an uncommon entity, and the development of cutaneous angiosarcoma of the breast after segmental mastectomy and irradiation therapy is even less common. We report a case of cutaneous angiosarcoma that developed 4 1/2 years after segmental mastectomy (lumpectomy) with axillary dissection and irradiation therapy for ...

Nipple Centralization for the Correction of Breast Deformity From Segmental Mastectomy

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 1990
A breast deformed by lateral tissue deficiency and severe lateral displacement of the nipple, caused by the treatment of an early breast cancer with segmental mastectomy and radiotherapy, was corrected by a modification of techniques used commonly for mastopexy.

Infiltrating lobular carcinoma of the breast treated with segmental and modified radical mastectomy

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 1989
AbstractConservative treatment of infiltrating lobular carcinoma (ILC) has previously been examined only in terms of general breast carcinoma studies. However, this lesion has been shown to differ from the more common infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) in estrogen receptor (ER) status, metastatic patterns, and bilaterality.

Imaging the Breast Treated by Segmental Mastectomy and Irradiation

1990
With widespread acceptance of screening mammography, breast imaging has become an integral part of health care for women. The resulting diagnosis of earlier stage carcinomas has permitted breast sparing surgical procedures to be an option elected by many. In our institution, over 75% of eligible patients choose this alternative.

Five-Year Results of a Randomized Clinical Trial Comparing Total Mastectomy and Segmental Mastectomy with or without Radiation in the Treatment of Breast Cancer

New England Journal of Medicine, 1985
In 1976 we began a randomized trial to evaluate breast conservation by a segmental mastectomy in the treatment of Stage I and II breast tumors less than or equal to 4 cm in size. The operation removes only sufficient tissue to ensure that margins of resected specimens are free of tumor.

Segmental Mastectomy Plus Radiation Therapy for Stage I Cancer of the Breast

American Journal of Clinical Pathology, 1975
Segmental mastectomy (surgical removal of the palpable tumor mass with a shell of normal tissue) plus irradiation to the entire remaining breast and regional lymph nodes is commonly used in other countries as a treatment for Stage I cancer of the breast. It is not, however, generally practiced or accepted in the United States.

Does intraductal breast cancer spread in a segmental distribution? An analysis of residual tumour burden following segmental mastectomy using tumour bed biopsies

European Journal of Surgical Oncology (EJSO), 2001
Breast-conserving surgery for early breast cancer is now routinely used as an alternative to mastectomy. Despite post-operative radiotherapy, early local recurrence of tumour remains a concern. It has been reported that invasive and in-situ ductal carcinoma spread locally through the ductal tree in a segmental distribution, however, there is no ...

2 Loco-regional recurrences of breast cancer after radical and segmental mastectomy

European Journal of Cancer, 1995
The detection of a loco-regional recurrence after primary treatment for breast cancer is a common event in clinical practice. Data from the literature are compared to those obtained from the analysis of a series of 4344 patients submitted to radical mastectomy (2948 pts., median follow-up: 15 years) or segmental mastectomy plus radiotherapy (1879 pts.,

Hypo-Fractionated Conformal Radiation Therapy to the Tumor Bed after Segmental Mastectomy

2004
Abstract : The current trial tests a regimen of conformal hypo-fractionated radiotherapy (5 fractions) directed to the original tumor bed with margins in a selected subset of post- menopausal women with breast cancer with a very low risk for local recurrence elsewhere in the breast. We are currently reporting the feasibility results and DVN analysis of
