Statistical analysis of clinical breast cancer by computer. 1978

A Daniele, and M Neroni

At the moment we still lack a clear correlation of clinical staging and pathology with therapy and prognosis in breast cancer patients. More studies need to be conducted dealing with the relationships of breast cancer to previous diseases, hormonal balance, conservative therapy and type of surgical therapy. These evaluations may be very important in supporting a less serious prognosis, a clearer clinical staging and a more certain choice of the right therapy. With computer help we have evaluated data from 500 patients with breast cancer. We have considered: age; previous breast diseases with particular regard to therapy; hormonal balance; obstetrical relevant past history; morphological and functional aspects of the breast; the histology of the tumour and metastases; and the results of therapy.
