The role of mastectomy in locally advanced breast cancer remains to be established. Experience at the Breast Clinic at the Provincial Hospital, Port Elizabeth, strongly suggests that mastectomy improves local control. The addition of mastectomy to a basic regimen of radiotherapy and adjuvant chemotherapy now forms the basis of a prospective clinical trial.
乳房切除术在局部晚期乳腺癌中的作用仍有待确定。伊丽莎白港省立医院乳腺诊所的经验有力地表明，乳房切除术可改善局部控制。在放疗和辅助化疗的基本方案中增加乳房切除术，现已成为一项前瞻性临床试验的基础。
