RICARDO RAMIREZ, José Manuel et al. Survival and clinical follow-up of mastectomized women for a decade. MEDISAN [online]. 2013, vol.17, n.9, pp. 4073-4080. ISSN 1029-3019.
An applied explanatory cohort study was conducted in 132 patients operated for breast cancer, with clinical follow-up at the Mastology Department of "Saturnino Lora Torres" Provincial Teaching Clinical Surgical Hospital of Santiago de Cuba, from January 2002 to the same month of 2012, to assess their survival and identify some predictive factors associated with mortality from this condition. The predominant tissular alteration was infiltrating ductal carcinoma in the case material, with 60.0% of survival in females, while the worst prognosis was mixed carcinoma without survival at the end of follow-up, and that of the best survival was lobular carcinoma. Patients with tumors in stages 0, I and IIA showed improved survival (100.0; 92.5 and 77.0%, respectively) and among women who developed distant metastases were predominance of liver and bone spread and better survival in those with locoregional metastatic lesions.
