[The results of breast conserving treatment in breast cancer].
The aim of the work was to assess the results of breast conserving treatment (BCT) in early breast cancer in patients treated in Lower Silesian Oncology Centre.


METHODS
Analysis of data from 167 women treated between 1997 and June 2003 with BCT and adjuvant therapy was performed.


RESULTS
Only in 14 patients (8.3%) failure of treatment was observed. In 7 cases (4.8%) there was local recurrence, all of them underwent mastectomy m. Patey and they are all alive without disease symptoms. In 6 women (3.6%) dissemination of cancer was observed. Death of 5 patients (3%) between 21 and 68 months from operation took place. In Cox-Mantel test only dependency between N status and dissemination (p < 0.05) was noted. Better results of treatment were connected with estrogen receptor (ER) overexpression. Our results do not differ from data published by leading oncology centers around the world.
