[The criteria and place of limited surgery in treating breast cancer].
The evolution of conceptions regarding the treatment of "operable" mammary cancer has balanced during the past 25 years between amputation of the mamma and non-mutilating treatments. The main achievements concerning the evolution of this site of cancer, as well as the selection criteria for a limited operation, such as they result from the literature and from the studies performed by the authors, are pointed out. These criteria, although numerous, should be very rigorously observed. The cooperation surgeon-radiotherapist-anatomo-pathologist is absolutely compulsory. Authors report 16 cases of women with mammary cancer, in 9 of whom the criteria were carried out. The results obtained are for the time being favourable but as the group is very small, definitive conclusions cannot be drawn.
