[Paget's cancer of the breast, clinical problem].
From October 1977 to October 1992 eighteen patients with Paget's cancer of the breast underwent surgical treatment in the Surgery Department, Oncological Clinic in Poznań. Mean age of patients was 60.4 years, mean duration of symptoms 12.6 month, mean time of dermatological treatment-7.2 month, more often we observed Paget's disease without palpable masses in the breast (T0)-72.2%, axillary lymph nodes free of metastases in 55.5% cases. Only one patient died because of breast cancer during follow up. None of radical operated patients developed cancer recurrence or distant metastases. Prolonged dermatological treatment delay the effective oncological therapy.
