Radiotherapy In Carcinoma Breast Early And Locally Advanced Ppt

Radiotherapy In Carcinoma Breast Early And Locally Advanced Ppt Introduction • radiation plays an important role in the management of breast cancer at all stages including ductal carcinoma in situ, early stage disease (as a component of breast conservation), and locally advanced disease (as an adjuvant treatment after mastectomy). • radiation is also a highly effective palliative modality. 2. introduction • breast cancer is one of the most common cancers seen and treated by radiation oncologists. • radiation plays an important role in the management of breast cancer at all stages including ductal carcinoma in situ, early stage disease (as a component of breast conservation), and locally advanced disease (as an adjuvant treatment after mastectomy).

Radiotherapy Breast Cancer Ppt Locally advanced breast cancer refers to stage iiia and iiib breast cancer where the cancer has spread locally but not to distant sites. it is typically treated with a multi pronged approach including neoadjuvant chemotherapy to shrink the tumor followed by surgery if possible. post operatively, patients receive adjuvant chemotherapy, radiation.

Abstract. locally advanced breast cancer (labc) is defined here as inoperable breast adenocarcinoma without distant metastases. patients with labc require a multidisciplinary approach. given the risk of distant metastasis, staging exams are necessary. the incidence of labc (stages iiib and iiic) has decreased in recent years.
