Rationale for repeat breast-conserving surgery after in-breast recurrence of breast cancer
Abstract
The main outcomes of our interest were local control and survival of 76 patients with local recurrence of breast cancer treated with conservative surgery (n = 32) or mastectomy (n = 44). There was not statistically significant difference in the probability of 5-years overall (81 %, 64.2 %; p = 0,245) and metastatic-free survival (60.7 %, 57.1 %, p = 0,553), as measured from the recurrence, and in rates of subsequent in-breast (12.5 %) or chest wall (11.4 %) recurrences between women of these two groups respectively. This fact is rationale for repeat breast-conserv- ing surgery in appropriately selected patients and requires further investigations.
