Title: [Influence of surgery method and post-operative irradiation dose in case of mastocarcinomas (author's transl)]. Author: Koch HL, Voss AC. Journal: Strahlentherapie; 1982 Mar; 158(3):139-44. PubMed ID: 6803403. Abstract: The authors present the therapy results and side effects of 422 patients who had been submitted to a radical or partially radical operation or to ablatio mammae. The post-operative irradiation was effected under high voltage conditions with doses between 40 and 50 Gy corresponding to the stage. The survival times were not influenced either by the surgery method or by the post-operative irradiation dose. As compared to radical surgery, however, edemas of the arm were significantly less frequent and serious after a less radical operation. No significant increase of recurrences was observed after partially radical operations.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
