title: [Breast-sparing surgery in T1 breast carcinoma].
abstract: 31 female patients with a T1 No N1a Mo breast tumour (diameter smaller or equal to 2 cm) were treated by segmental resection with complete axillar dissection, followed by radiotherapy. Chemotherapy was given in any case of axillary lymph node involvement. The mean follow-up period was 44 months. Absolute survival is 100%. One patient (3%) developed distant metastasis, 2 patients (6%) had a loco-regional recurrence and 3 presented with a metachronous tumour in the contralateral breast. 97% of the patients are actually alive and free of disease.
