Axillary Treatment in Conservative Management of Operable Breast Cancer: Dissection or Radiotherapy? Results of a Randomized Study With 15 Years of Follow-Up

Abstract

In early breast cancers with clinically uninvolved lymph nodes, our findings show that long-term survival does not differ after axillary radiotherapy and axillary dissection. The only difference is a better axillary control in the group with axillary dissection.
