This paper reports a descriptive study of the costs and quality of life (QoL) outcome of treatments for early stage breast cancer in a cohort of Australian women, one year after initial surgical treatment. Mastectomy without breast reconstruction is compared to breast conserving surgery and radiotherapy (breast conservation). Of the 397 women eligible for the study, costing data were collected ...
BACKGROUND Multiple randomized trials comparing mastectomy to lumpectomy and whole breast irradiation (WBI) have shown equivalent survival outcomes in early-stage breast cancer. WBI requires a treatment course of several weeks, which has resulted in limited access to breast-conserving therapy in certain populations. A shorter accelerated course of partial breast irradiation (APBI) has been inve...
Breast cancer management has been evolving toward minimally invasive approaches. Image-guided percutaneous biopsy techniques provide accurate histologic diagnosis without the need for surgical biopsy. Breast conservation therapy has become the treatment standard for early-stage breast cancer. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a new procedure that can predict axillary lymph node status without the n...
The utilization of MRI in the workup of breast cancer has played a controversial role in the surgical treatment of this disease. With the higher resolution of breast tissue afforded, additional lesions are being identified that often warrant additional procedures, subsequently affecting the decision to proceed with breast conservation therapy versus mastectomy. In this paper, a literature revie...
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) has the added advantage of increasing breast conservation rates with equivalent survival outcomes compared with adjuvant chemotherapy. A subset of breast cancer patients who received NAC experienced early failure (EF) during the course of therapy or within a short period after curative breast surgery. In contrast, patients with pathological complete response (pCR)...
Study sample Power calculations were not reported. Eligible patients were identified from a 5% random sample of all Medicare claims for patients with a breast cancer diagnosis or surgery procedure, for the calendar years 1992 to 1994. Women with a history of cancer diagnosis, carcinoma-in-situ diagnosis, metastasis diagnosis, or bilateral procedure were excluded. Also excluded were cases that l...
PURPOSE To determine the frequency by which breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provides information that influences the surgical management of patients with breast cancer. MATERIALS AND METHODS From August 2006 to December 2008, contrast-enhanced bilateral breast MRI was performed on 68 patients, all of whom exhibited highly suspicious imaging findings (BI-RADS category 4 or 5). Patients...
