    Partial mastectomy without radiation therapy offers comparable or superior survival for select breast cancer patients. Patient selection for small, early-stage tumors is key to these favorable outcomes.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Surgical Oncology
    • Breast Cancer Treatment

    Background:

    • Partial mastectomy without radiation therapy has been a treatment option at The Cleveland Clinic since 1957 for specific breast cancer cases.
    • This approach has been utilized for selected patients diagnosed with breast cancer.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the experience with partial mastectomy without radiation therapy in breast cancer patients.
    • To compare survival results of this procedure with other surgical treatments for breast cancer.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of experience with 322 patients treated with partial mastectomy without radiation therapy.
    • Comparison of survival outcomes with other operative procedures for breast cancer.

    Main Results:

    Related Experiment Videos

    • Survival results for partial mastectomy without radiation therapy were equal to or better than other employed operative procedures.
    • The study involved 322 patients treated since 1957.

    Conclusions:

    • The favorable survival results are attributed to careful patient selection, specifically those with small tumors and early-stage disease.
    • Patient selection criteria are considered more influential than the operative procedure itself in achieving positive outcomes.
