A questionnaire survey of consultant surgeons in England indicates that there has been a considerable change in opinion over the past few years concerning the management of early breast cancer; only 39.1% would now perform mastectomy, whereas 64.4% would perform conservative surgery. The most common forms of management are simple mastectomy and axillary clearance (21.9%); wide excision, axillary clearance plus radiotherapy (20.1%); and wide excision plus radiotherapy alone (16.9%). The majority of the surgeons would offer patients a choice of surgery, but only 52% had access to a breast care nurse.
