Abstract:
The frequency of recurrences in a material of 463 patients with mammary carcinoma following treatment by surgery with or without postoperative roentgen or cobalt irradiation to the operation area and regional lymph nodes is analysed. Postoperative irradiation to the operation area seems to prevent the chest wall recurrences even in stage I mammary carcinoma.
