[Conservative operations combined with interstitial radiotherapy in the combined treatment of early-stage breast cancer patients]

AbstractCombined application of function-saving surgical procedure and intratumoral radiotherapy in cases of early breast cancer is of value since it is followed by stable remission in the majority of patients and produces a good cosmetic and, therefore, psychologic, effect. Function-saving surgery followed by irradiation to prevent local dissemination should be performed for early breast cancer at specialized oncological establishments. Patients should be followed-up closely.
