Discussion A considerable amount of evidence from the scientific literature supports the
safety and efficacy of combining BCS with radiotherapy in the early stages of breast cancer …

Background There have been conflicting studies reporting on survival advantages between
breast-conserving surgery with radiotherapy (BCS) in comparison with mastectomy. Our aim …

Background: Breast conserving surgery with adjuvant radiotherapy (BCS+ RT) and
mastectomy are currently offered as equivalent surgical options for early breast cancer …

Background Breast-conserving surgery with adjuvant radiotherapy and mastectomy are
currently offered as equivalent surgical options for early-stage breast cancer based on RCTs …

Background Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) plus radiotherapy (BCS+ RT) has been
shown to improve survival compared with mastectomy in patients with early breast cancer; …

Background Compared to mastectomy, breast-conserving surgery (BCS) provides the same
survival rate and a higher quality of life for patients with early breast cancer (EBC). However …

Introduction Landmark trials established equivalent survival regardless of extent of breast
surgery in early-stage breast cancer. However, recent studies suggest a survival advantage …

Introduction Current recommendations for early-stage breast cancer are largely based on
the NSABP B-06 trial demonstrating equivalent survival between mastectomy and …

Objectives Evidence suggests superiority of breast conserving surgery (BCS) plus radiation
over mastectomy alone for treatment of early stage breast cancer. Whether the superiority of …

Purpose Recent observations regarding long-term outcomes among patients with early-
stage breast cancer (BC) who underwent breast-conserving surgery (BCS) plus whole …
