The comparative analysis of the 10-year overall and disease free survival (Kaplan-Meier) of patients with breast cancer is carried out. Group A - patients who had a mastectomy on day of excisional biopsy (n=556), Group B - patients who had the delayed mastectomy (n=142). The status of regional lymph nodes and tumor laterality was considered. It is determined that the excisional biopsy with a mastectomy which is delayed till 24 days does not worsen survival of patients with breast cancer stages T2 N0-3 M0. Influence of a time interval between an excisional biopsy and mastectomy on patients survival depends on a condition of regional lymph nodes and cancer laterality.
Keywords:breast cancer, mastectomy, biopsy, excisional biopsy, lumpectomy, breast resection, open biopsy.
