Patey's operation was used to treat breast cancer in 658 cases between 1956 and 1976 at the Bologna University Surgical Clinic. Follow-up in 562 cases revealed 5-yr and 10-yr survival rates substantially similar to those obtained by Halsted and others. It is felt that the type of operation used is of relative importance for survival, since breast cancer is dependent on other factors that require careful appraisal in each case.
1956年至1976年间，博洛尼亚大学外科诊所采用佩蒂手术治疗乳腺癌658例。对562例患者的随访显示，其5年和10年生存率与霍尔斯特德等人报告的结果基本相似。鉴于乳腺癌的生存情况还取决于其他因素，而这些因素在每个病例中都需要仔细评估，因此认为所采用的手术方式对生存率具有相对重要性。
