Abstract

The use of primary systemic chemotherapy for the treatment of 'operable' breast cancer evolved from the need to improve the outlook of patients with disease that is locally advanced but apparently without metastases. Trials are now showing that this can also be a worthwhile approach to the treatment of primary breast cancer in the elderly.

摘要

原发性全身化疗用于治疗“可手术”乳腺癌，是源于改善局部晚期但明显无转移疾病患者预后的需求。目前的试验表明，这对于老年原发性乳腺癌的治疗也是一种值得采用的方法。
