M eric et al. 1 recently concluded that currently available data are not sufficient to determine conclusively whether distant metastases are caused by the development of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR). 1 The authors of at least four randomized, prospective trials do not agree.

## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The current study identified determinants of systemic recurrence and disease‐specific survival (DSS) in patients with early‐stage breast carcinoma treated with breast‐conserving surgery and radiation therapy (breast‐conserving therapy, or BCT). ## METHODS The study popu
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Breast conservative surgery (CS) with radiotherapy (RT) is the most commonly used treatment for early‐stage breast carcinoma. However, there is controversy regarding the importance of the pathologic margin status on the risk of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR).
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The objectives of the current study were to determine the long‐term biochemical recurrence (BCR) and cancer‐specific survival (CSS) rates for men with seminal vesicle invasion (SVI) and to identify risk factors for freedom from BCR and CSS in patients who received treatme
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The clinical features of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence (IBTR) after breast conserving therapy (BCT) for early stage breast cancer were analyzed from long‐term follow‐up of BCT in Japan. The purpose of this study was to clarify risk factors of IBTR and the impact of
