โœฆ Synopsis


This is a study of 408 patients who had mastectomy for clinical stages I, 11, and early 111 carcinoma of the breast during 1971-1980. Analysis of disease-free probabilities up to 5 yr showed that the number of positive axillary nodes was the most important prognostic factor. Size of primary tumor was the second most useful factor, with best separation of diseasefree rates using 4 cm as a dividing line. Patients with colloid carcinoma and other less common lesions had much better prognosis than those with infiltrating ductal, lobular, or medullary carcinomas. Discriminating analysis also showed that information about the number of positive axillary node alone gave the best prediction of possibility of developing recurrence (overall accuracy, 75 %).

## BACKGROUND. Basosquamous carcinoma is a rare malignancy, with features of both basal cell carcinoma and squamous cell carcinoma. Some authors believe that basosquamous carcinoma merely is a variant of basal cell carcinoma, whereas others have suggested that basosquamous carcinoma may behave more

## Abstract This is a retrospective review of 476 patients who had mastectomy for carcinoma of the breast during 1971โ€“1980. There is a positive correlation of size of the primary tumor and the incidence of axillary nodal metastasis. Infiltrating ductal and lobular carcinoma had a significantly high
