| Abstract: | The treatment of operable breast cancer in eighty-two patients older than seventy years was analyzed. The cancers were treated at an advanced stage and the axilla was involved as frequently as in younger women. The factors influencing survival differ because of competing mortalities from heart disease and stroke. The risks are discussed in relation to life expectancy and treatment method. |
