Abstract
Seven hundred fifty-two patients with stage III disease (of those, 178 patients with inflammatory carcinoma) were treated with a combined modality approach at our institute in seven prospective studies. After three to four cycles of chemotherapy, each patient was treated with local therapy. An estimated 54% of patients with stage IIIA disease and 24% of patients with stage IIIB disease were free of disease. An estimated 30% of patients with inflammatory carcinoma of breast were free of disease beyond 10 years with this approach.Entities:
