Greater Satisfaction With Autologous Breast Reconstruction
And, likelihood of complications up for autologous reconstruction versus expander-implant technique
ASCO: Ovarian Suppression + Tamoxifen Ups Breast CA Survival
Increased disease-free, overall survival for premenopausal women with breast cancer
Many Breast Cancer Survivors Do Not Undergo Annual Surveillance
In year 1, 13 percent did not undergo MRI or mammography; up to 19 percent by year 5
Personalized Therapy Promising in Metastatic Breast Cancer
Adaptive transfer of mutant-protein-specific tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes leads to disease regression
ASCO: Endocrine Tx Noninferior for HR+, HER2− Breast Cancer
Similar efficacy for endocrine, chemoendocrine tx for women with midrange 21-gene recurrence score
Poor Prognosis for Interval Breast Cancer After Negative Mammo
Odds of poor prognosis after mammography with negative results higher for younger women
Screening Mammos Linked to Less Aggressive Tx If Diagnosed
Women aged 40 to 49 years with no mammogram have increased odds of positive nodes, larger tumors
Early Intervention May Reduce Breast CA-Related Lymphedema
Bioimpedance spectroscopy monitoring with early interventions lowers need for aggressive treatment
CTC Status Predicts RT Benefit in Early-Stage Breast Cancer
CTC status linked to longer overall survival in those undergoing breast conserving surgery
Similar Risk Predicted for Automated, Clinical BI-RADS Density
Similar discriminatory accuracy for automated, clinical BI-RADS density measures for interval, screen CAs
