[Postoperative accelerated partial radiotherapy for breast cancer].

Background: Interstitial accelerated partial breast irradiation is generally limited to patients with extremely low risk of local recurrence.

Materials And Methods: Between 2004 and 2008, 53 women in the early-stage of breast cancer were treated with multicatheter interstitial brachytherapy in very short general anaesthesia. All patients had T1 (1-22 mm) tumour with no positive auxiliary node and with negative surgical margins.
