The well-characterized tubular-type of breast tumors is classified as low-risk breast cancer.We report on the results of a retrospective analysis on clinical and biological features of 248 tubular breast tumors including follow-up and treatment data from two German series of 21,065 breast cancer cases. The majority of tumors were stage I or stage II, ER- and PR-positive and c-erbB2-negative with a 5-year survival-rate of 96.3%. 51.3% of patients received hormonal treatment, 75.5% had post-operative radiotherapy and 11.8% were treated with a chemotherapeutical regimen.Our retrospective analysis showed no treatment benefit for either anti-hormonal or chemotherapeutical regimens. Post-operative radiotherapy, however, improved the survival rate of patients with tubular carcinoma (log-rank=5, p=0.025). Our data suggest that post-operative radiotherapy is an important treatment to prolong survival for patients suffering from tubular breast cancer. |
