ABSTRACT: Out of 3718 breast cancer patients treated at Petrov Research Institute of Oncology 262 patients [7%] proved to have minimal (less than 1 cm in diameter) form of breast cancer. Treatment of minimal breast cancer provides favorable end-results (5-year survival 91.2%, 10-year survival--79.5%). Nevertheless, minimal forms of breast cancer are also characterized by the ability to regional (in 28.5% of cases) and distant (in 10.3% of cases) metastatic spread. Organ preserving operations (sectoral resection of one block with axillary-subclavicular fat) are often (18.5%) followed by local-regional recurrences of the disease. Application of adjuvant chemotherapy with Thio-TEPA in patients with minimal breast cancer with regional metastases decreases frequency of recurrences and distant metastases by 17.8%.Neoplasma 02/1983; 30(3):365-9. · 1.44 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: The scheme of detection of breast tumors includes such measures of complex screening as self-examination, questionnaires, examination by shop floor doctor, fluoromammography and thermography followed by consultation of an oncologist, needle biopsy and use of surgical manuals. Out of 12,862 females examined by the scheme, 52 (0.4%) had breast tumors (early forms in 23 cases -- 44.2%), 254 (2%) -- benign tumors and cysts; 981 (7.6%) -- dyshormonal mastopathy and 522 (4.0%) -- local fibroadenomatosis.Voprosy onkologii 02/1982; 28(1):58-62. -

ABSTRACT: The results of mass screening survey conducted at the Institute are presented. Three examinations (clinical examination, thermography, mammography, biopsy) of 5,006 females, aged 35 years and older, revealed breast tumors in 43 cases (8.5 per 1,000). X-ray - mammography and clinical examination established tumor in 44.0%; mammography-34.8%, and clinical examination-in 21.1% of cases. Tumors less than 2 cm in diameter were detected in 32 out of 43 cases of breast cancer (74.4%).Voprosy onkologii 02/1981; 27(8):26-9. -

ABSTRACT: Data are presented on the results of the complex prophylactic examinations of women at Prof. Petrov Research Institute of Oncology of the USSR Ministry of Health for the period of 1976--1980. Four annual prophylactic examinations (clinical method, thermography, mammography, biopsy) of 4823 women over 35 years of age revealed breast cancer in 51 persons (i.e. in 1.05% of the examined women). In 52.9% of cases tumors were revealed by clinical examination + mammography, in 29.4% by mammography alone, in 17.5% by clinical examination alone. In 38 out of 51 breast cancer patients (i.e. in 74.5% of cases) the detected tumors were less than 2 cm in diameter (stage I, "minimal" and preinvasive carcinomas).Neoplasma 02/1981; 28(5):611-5. · 1.44 Impact Factor -

ABSTRACT: Under examination were 2699 females over 30 years of age having no complaints of the mammary gland induration. The following diagnostic tests were used: 1) clinical; 2) thermography of mammary glands; 3) mammography in two projections. Breast cancer was revealed in 12 females (in 4.4 per 1,000 persons under examination). The clinical method solely revealed mammary gland cancer in 0.14%, thermography--in 0.28%, mammography-in 0.57%. A two-step examination, when persons suspected of breast pathology being preliminary identified, enabled the recognition of breast cancer in 2.97% (29.7 per 1,000 examined subjects). 41.6 per cent of the detected tumors proved to be lobar carcinoma in situ, 33 per cent--microfoci of scirrhous and solid cancer. The conclusion is drawn on somewhat limited opportunities of thermography as a screening method due to very frequent pseudopositive diagnoses.Voprosy onkologii 02/1978; 24(6):86-90.
