ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
In spite of improved local control and adjuvant therapy in breast cancer, many patients after a modified radical mastectomy suffer from locoregional or systemic failure. The purpose of this study was to assess both the patterns of failure following a mastectomy and the predictive factors affecting the risks of locoregional or systemic failure.METHODS:
The study population consisted of 195 patients who developed locoregional or systemic failure from among 1,187 patients treated by using a modified radical mastectomy between July 1989 and October 1998 at the Asan Medical Center's Breast Clinic. The median follow-up time following the mastectomy was 41 months (range; 1-119 months).RESULTS:
Isolated locoregional recurrence (LRR) developed in 46 patients (24%), LRR with distant metastasis in 43 (22%), and only distant metastasis in 106 (54%). The sites of LRR were as follows the chest wall, 52%; the ipsilateral supraclaviclar node, 22%; and the axillary node, 15%; etc. The first sites of distant metastasis were as follows bone, 46%; lung, 38%; liver, 12%; brain, 6%; and pleura, 6%; etc. Local or systemic failure appeared within the first 3 years following the mastectomy in 75-82% of the patients, and within 5 years in 95-98%. Multivariate analysis showed that increasing initial tumor size, increasing number of involved nodes, negative progesterone receptor, and increasing histologic grade were significant factors for increased risks of LLR or distant metastasis.CONCLUSION:
Half of the locoregional recurrences following a mastectomy are isolated. T-stage, nodal status, progesterone receptor, and histo logic grade may help to identify patients at risk for locoregional or systemic failure after a mastectomy.
