ABSTRACT

OBJETIVO: Avaliar o tratamento de carcinomas de mama T2 (≥ 4 cm) e T3, por quimioterapia neoadjuvante, quadrantectomia e braquiterapia com alta taxa de dose como reforço de dose (boost), radioterapia complementar e quimioterapia adjuvante, quanto ao controle local e sobrevida global.MATERIAL E MÉTODO: Trata-se de estudo clínico prospectivo descritivo que avaliou 88 pacientes com idade entre 30 e 70 anos, portadoras de carcinoma ductal infiltrante, nos estádio clínico IIb e IIIa, responsivas à quimioterapia neoadjuvante, tratadas entre junho de 1995 e dezembro de 2006. A resposta do tumor foi avaliada por método clínico antes e após três ou quatro ciclos de quimioterapia contendo antracíclicos. O seguimento mediano foi de 58 meses. Sobrevida global e controle local foram analisados segundo o método de Kaplan-Meier. RESULTADOS: O controle local e a sobrevida global em cinco anos foram de 90% e 73,5%, respectivamente. CONCLUSÃO: O controle local e a sobrevida global são comparáveis aos observados em outras formas terapêuticas.


OBJECTIVE: To assess the treatment of breast cancer T2 (≥ 4 cm) and T3 through neoadjuvant chemotherapy, quadrantectomy and high dose rate brachyterapy as a boost, complementary radiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy, considering local control and overall survival. MATERIAL AND METHOD: This clinical prospectivedescriptive study was based on the evaluation of 88 patients rangingfrom 30 to 70 years old, with infiltrating ductal carcinoma, clinical stage IIb and IIIa, responsive to the neoadjuvant chemotherapy, treated from June/1995 to December/2006. Median follow-up was 58 months. Using clinical methods the tumor was evaluated before and after three or four cycles of chemotherapy based on antraciclins. Overall survival and local control were assessed according to Kaplan-Meier methodology. RESULTS: Local control and overall survival in five years were 90% and 73.5%, respectively. CONCLUSION: Local control and overall survival were comparable to other forms of treatment.
