Abstract:
Objective : To study the long -term result of stage " breast cancer treatment by surgery. Methods : During the period of 1973 to 1983, 765 patients with stage " breast cancer were treated surgically. They accounted for 28.7% of 2665 cases of primary breast cancer treated at this hospital during the same period. In 50 cases, the tumor were ≤2cm (T1N1bM0) in diameter, 362 tumors were 2.1~3cm, 238 tumors were 3.1~4cm and 115 tumors were 4.1~5cm. Margottrni operation was done in 2 cases, halsted in 434, modified radical mastectomy in 280, and simple mastectomy in 49 cases.According to pathological type, lymph node metastasis and survival condition we study stage Ⅱbreast cancer. Results : Lymph node metastases were found in 31% in T2No cases, 59.2% in T1N1b cases and 56.9% in T2N1 cases. The total clinical 3-year recurrence rate was 4.2%, 5-year survival rate and 5 -year NED rate respectively were 77.4% and 70.0%; 10-year survival rate and 10 -year NED rate were 62.4% and 60.2%.3 -year recurrence rate of noninfiltrative carcinoma, early infiltrative carcinoma, infiltrative specific carcinoma and nonspecific carcinoma respectively were 0%, 2.1%, 2.0% and 4.8%; 5-year survival rate of noninfiltrative carcinoma, early infiltrative carcinoma, infiltrative specific carcinoma and nonspecific carcinoma respectively were 93<3% , 80<9% , 86<0% and 75<6% ; 5 -year NED rate of noninfiltrative carcinoma, early infiltrative carcinoma, infiltrative specific carcinoma and nonspecific carcinoma respectively were 90.0%, 78.7%, 82.0% and 67.4%; 10-year survival rate of noninfiltrative carcinoma, early infiltrative carcinoma, infiltrative specific carcinoma and nonspecific carcinoma respectively were 89.7%, 78.6%, 78.0% and 58.8%; and 10-year NED rate of noninfiltrative carcinoma, early infiltrative carcinoma, infiltrative specific carcinoma and nonspecific carcinoma respectively were 89.7%, 75.6 %, 72.0% and 56.7%. The 3-year recurrence rate of the primary carcinoma ≤2cm (TlNlb), 2.1~3cm, 3.1~4cm and 4.1~5cm respectively were 10.0%, 2.8%, 4.3% and 6.3%;5-year survival rate of the primary carcinoma ≤2cm (TINlb), 2.1~3cm, 3.1~4cm and 4.1 -5cm respectively were 60.0%, 82.1% 75.4% and 74.5%; 5-year NED rate of the primary carcinoma ≤2cm(T1N1b), 2.1-3cm, 3.1-4cm and 4.1-5cm respectively were 50.0%, 74.4%, 68.5% and 68.2%; 10-year survival rate of the primary carcinoma ≤2cm (T1N1b), 2.1~3cm, 3.1~4cm and 4.1~5cm respectively were 46.9% ,68.3%, 57.1% and 61.7% ; and 10-year NED rate of the primary carcinoma ≤2cm(T1N1b), 2.1~3cm, 3.1~4cm and 4.1~5cm respectively were 42.9%, 66.0%, 54.9% and 60.7%. Conclusion: No relation of stage II breast cancers was found between the long term result and the type of operation. Key of decreased recurrence and increased surrival, and NED rate was adjuvat chemotherapy.
