Breast-conserving therapy in the management of early stage breast cancer: Our experience in 103 cases.

Purpose: The aim of this study is to determine whether our results in breastconserving therapy of 103 patients with earlystage breast cancer are comparable to those of other facilities or not.

Materials And Methods: From January 1990 to October 1999, 103 patients with earlystage breast cancer were treated by breastconserving surgery and whole breast irradiation. All patients were of Stages I or II, and the greatest dimensions of primary tumor were less than 3 cm.
