| Popis: | The biological behavior of breast cancer supports the impression that it is often a systemic disease which can recur many years after the treatment of the local lesion. Since 35% of patients without axillary nodal metastasis will have recurrence of the disease after mastectomy, prognostic indicators are necessary to identify the high-risk patients to allow a more rational adjuvant therapy. We studied the prognostic value of fatty tissue invasion, perineural involvement and lymphatic and venous peritumoral embolization in T2NOMO primary breast carcinomas. Fifty-three patients were studied after initial treatment (only Halsted mastectomy). They were divided into two groups: A (control), with 25 patients with 15 years of survival without clinical and laboratory evidence of metastasis, and group B, with 28 patients who developed metastasis after initial treatment. The results were analysed by the chi-square test (p |
