Abstract
A series of 203 consecutive patients with operable carcinoma of the breast was analysed with regard to correlations between a set of immunologic and clinical variables existing at the time of the diagnosis. No major correlations were revealed between immunologic variables on the one hand and clinical features or the course of the disease on the other. The well-known prognostic relevance of tumour size, involvement of the axilla and the histological grade of malignancy was evident.
