The results obtained with oestrogen treatment of diffuse malignant cancer of the breast are reported. Improvement was obtained in 50% of cases, 23.3% remained stationary and 26.6% worsened. Side effects were confined essentially to liver trouble of colostatic type, a disturbance that was temporary and closely linked with the drug dose employed. Some aspects of high dose antitumour hormone treatment are examined in detail: hormone dose in the induction phase and during maintenance, latency time before the appearance of the first signs of improvement, relationship between age, sexual endocrinal state and therapeutic result, correlation between time of onset of the disease, free interval and result obtained.
