[Treatment of inflammatory breast cancer. Controlled study of a combination therapy program].
The authors report 27 cases of inflammatory carcinoma of the breast (T3-T4, M0) and propose: induction chemotherapy (adriamycin, vincristin, methotrexate) conventional local and regional radiotherapy, sometimes complementary surgical exeresis, and a complement of consolidation chemotherapy (cyclophosphamid, methotrexate, fluoro-uracil or adriamycin, vincristin, and methotrexate). In these forms, where the prognosis is very bad, this therapeutic regimen may improve considerably the median remission and survival rates. But important therapeutic progress remains.
