Il Trattamento Ormonico Chirurgico Del Cancro Avanzato E Metastatizzato Della Mammella

Abstract
Bilateral oophoro-adrenalectomy appears, at present, to be the best among methods of endocrine treatment in inoperable or metastatic mammary carcinoma. Statistical results concerning 42 women treated with bilateral oophoro-adrenalectomy during 2 years are referred. Objective improvements have been obtained in the 59 per cent of the cases and subjective improvements in the 83 per cent. Both clinical and laboratory findings are, however, still lacking for the prediction of beneficial results in each patient.
