title: [The significance of neoadjuvant intra-arterial chemotherapy for locally advanced breast cancer by different methods].
abstract: For neoadjuvant intra-arterial (IA) chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer patients, Seldinger's methods were found to be convenient and had the same effect and outcome as conventional methods. The prognosis of the patients in whom IA chemotherapy was locally effective and had fewer than n 1 lymph node metastases was comparatively favorable. However, several patients who underwent IA chemotherapy later experienced local recurrence, and the cause of these patient's death was distant metastases in almost all cases. We recommend neoadjuvant IA and systemic chemotherapy, and systemic adjuvant chemotherapy.
