[Survival of breast cancer patients (from the data of the All-Union Center for the Study of the Effectiveness of Cancer Treatment)].
The paper discusses the results of an evaluation of therapeutic modalities and survival of 9,199 breast cancer patients treated at Soviet oncological establishments in 1974-1980. The case distribution was as follows: stage I-II--51, III--38 and IV--10%. Relative five-year survival rate averaged 55% for all the patients under study (stage I--86, II--68, III--39 and IV--12%). The highest 5-year survival rate was registered in cases of combined treatment (surgery + irradiation and/or chemohormonotherapy).
