Title: [Remote results of preoperative large fractionation gamma-therapy for breast cancer]. Author: Goldobenko GV, Stroganova LG, Firsova PP, Iliukhin SA, Konovalova VV. Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1979; 25(12):67-71. PubMed ID: 117633. Abstract: The results of using large fractionation irradiation preoperatively in 131 breast cancer patients are reported. A focal dosage for a primary tumor was found to be 2400 rad (1350 ret) and 1800 rad (1100 ret) for axillary lymph nodes, which given by 600 rad in a day neither effect the course of surgical intervention nor increase the number of the postoperative complications. A five-year cure with stage I-II was 66,3 +/- 11,1%, with stage III--47,9 +/- 7,3%. The whole course of radical treatment lasted on the average for 41-46 days.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
