Different surgical approaches were selected according to the range and positions of the lesions. One case with severe atypical hyperplasia received postoperative radiotherapy. RESULTS: All cases were followed up for 3-14 years, 7 cases recurred. All occurrence within 2 years after operation. Malignant change and death was found in 1 case.
