[Clinical significance of steroid receptors in breast cancer].
The steroid receptor determination (first of all estrogen receptor--ER--) of the breast cancer tissue has become an important factor for prognostication and treatment. Authors from the Surgical Department of the National Institute of Oncology provide a biostatistical survey of their 727 breast cancer patients. Following factors proved to have significant impact on the prognosis: positivity of ER, the quantitative value of ER, ER vs. lymph node status, ER vs. DFI, ER and the site of metastases and the hormone therapy. The progesterone receptor (PR) provides indication in case only for DFI for metastases. However, in this very respect it has a more significant value than that of ER. Multidimensional analysis has shown that the most important prognostic factors are the lymph node status, patient's age, size of the tumour and the ER value.
