title: [Local recurrence of breast cancer after breast preserving surgery. Experiences with a triple test as a routine control].
abstract: Patients treated for breast cancer with breast-conserving surgery and radiotherapy were followed up by physical examination, mammography, and fine needle aspiration ("triple test") at The Norwegian Radium Hospital. Local recurrence was found in six cases. Two recurrences were detected by physical examination only, one by physical examination and mammography, and three by mammography only. Fine needle aspiration is useful when recurrence of cancer is suspected at mammographic or physical examination. Follow-up after breast-conserving treatment requires considerable experience in the field. Follow-up using the "triple test" should take place at regional centres.
