Detection and significance of small and low proliferation breast cancer

Objectives: To determine the frequency and discuss possible implications of early breast cancer with particularly good prognosis and defined by tumor diameter and cell proliferation. Setting: Detection of small and slowly growing tumors presents a challenge in breast cancer management, due to the ri...

Summary:Objectives: To determine the frequency and discuss possible implications of early breast cancer with particularly good prognosis and defined by tumor diameter and cell proliferation. Setting: Detection of small and slowly growing tumors presents a challenge in breast cancer management, due to the risk of over-treatment. Here, we attempted to define a group of such tumors by combining small diameter (
