Title: Primary therapy for limited breast cancer: Surgical techniques
Conference Title: American Cancer Society Workshop on Management of Limited Breast Cancer
Abstract: Surgical techniques for breast cancer patients with early stages of disease are discussed. In situ cancers (LCIS, microscopic DCIS, and gross DCIS) present different risks and natural histories, and thus different treatment options are advised. For Stage I and earlier Stage II patients, either modified radical mastectomy or breast preservation with limited resection, axillary dissection, and subsequent breast irradiation are described. Immediate (or delayed) breast reconstruction offers other options for mastectomy patients. Copyright © 1990 American Cancer Society
