Background: The goals of breast-conserving surgery are to provide the survival equivalent of mastectomy, a cosmetically acceptable breast and a low rate of locoregional recurrence in the treated breast. This retrospective study investigated the impact of the resection volume on locoregional recurrence after breast-conserving therapy in patients with early-stage invasive breast cancer.
Patients And Methods: Retrospective data from 185 women who were treated for operable breast tumours by breast-conserving surgery between 1995-1999 at the Martin-Luther-University in Halle/Germany were included in our study.
