Clinical presentation
• painless or slightly tender breast mass • Abnormal screening mammogram• breast tenderness, bloody nipple discharge, or
occasionally change in the shape and size of the breast

Types of Mastectomies Used as Treatments for Breast Cancer
![Page 13: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
• Segmental mastectomy, lumpectomy, tylectomy: Removal of the primary tumor with a surrounding margin of breast tissue
![Page 14: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
• Total or simple mastectomy :Removal of the
breast but not the axillary contents
Indications:
– Stage I and stage IIa carcinoma
– Multifocal or multicentric CIS.
![Page 15: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Modified radical mastectomy: Removal of
the breast plus an axillary level I/II dissection
• Indications:
– LABC
– Multifocal or multicentric disease
![Page 16: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Modified radical Mastectomy-procedure
1. Patey’s procedure:
– The P.minor is removed for better visualization and easy
dissection of level III lymph nodes.
2. Scanlon’s procedure:
– P.minor is retracted to expose level III nodes and dissected out.
3. Auchincloss procedure:
– Level I and II lymph nodes are cleared, level III nodes are left
behind.

• Radical mastectomy :Removal of the parenchyma breast tissue and pectoralis major muscle plus an axillary level I/II dissection
![Page 18: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
• Extended radical mastectomy :Removal of the breast and pectoralis major muscle plus an axillary level I/II and internal mammary lymph node dissection, may also include a level III axillary lymph node dissection
• Skin-sparing mastectomy :Total or modified radical
mastectomy with preservation of a significant component of the native skin of the breast to optimize the aesthetic result of an immediate reconstruction
![Page 19: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Breast conserving therapy
– Wide local excision/Lumpectomy or
Quadrantectomy + axillary lymph node clearance +
Radiotherapy.
![Page 20: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Contraindications to BCT
• Absolute:• Radiation therapy during pregnancy• Diffuse suspicious or malignant-appearing
microcalcifications• Widespread disease that cannot be incorporated
by local excision through a single incision that achieves negative margins with a satisfactory cosmetic result
• Positive pathologic margin
![Page 21: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
• Relative:• Prior radiation therapy to the chest wall or breast; knowledge of doses
and volumes prescribed is essential.• Active connective tissue disease involving the skin (especially
scleroderma and lupus)• Tumors >5 cm • Diffusely positive pathologic margins• Women with a known or suspected genetic predisposition to breast
cancer: -May have an increased risk of ipsilateral breast recurrence or
contralateral breast cancer with breast-conserving therapy -Prophylactic bilateral mastectomy for risk reduction may be considered
![Page 22: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Barriers to BreastConservation
• Stage at diagnosis• Lack of screening• Physician and patient attitudes• Access to radiotherapy
![Page 29: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Radiotherapy
• Treatment position:Most patients are treated in the supine position, with the arm abducted (90 degrees or greater)
• Radiation Beams:X-ray energies of 4 to 6 MV are preferred .
![Page 30: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
• Use of bolus results in impaired cosmetic results
• Wedges or compensating filters must be used for a portion of the treatment to achieve a uniform dose distribution in the breast
![Page 31: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)

For tangential fields• Upper border – 2nd ICS (angle of Louis) when supra
clavicular field used. When SCF not irradiated – head of clavicle
• Medial border – at or 1cm away from midline
• Lateral border – 2-3cm beyond all palpable breast tissue – mid axillary line
• Lower border – 2cm below inframammary fold
![Page 33: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
SCF• Single anterior field is used.Field borders – • Upper border : thyrocricoid groove
• Medial border : at or 1cm across midline extending upward following medial border of SCM ms to thyrocricoid groove
• Lateral border: insertion of deltoid muscle
• Lower border : matched with upper order of tangential fields
![Page 34: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Matching SCF and chest wall fields
AngulationBy inferior angulation of the tangential fields.
Half beam block technique Blocking the supraclav field’s inferior half, eliminating its divergence inferiorly .
Hanging block technique
Superior edge of tangential beam
made vertical by vertical
hanging block.
![Page 35: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Single isocentre technique
• Isocentre placed at the junction
of tangential and supraclavicular field
• Inferior portion of field blocked for
supraclavicular treatment and
superior portion blocked for
tangential field
![Page 36: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/36.jpg)
Internalmammary1. Extension of tangential fields– by extending medial border –
3cm across midline or by using imaging techniques
2. Separate field – • Medial border – midline , matching with tangential field
border• Lateral border – 5-6cm from midline• Superior border – abuts inferior border of supraclav field or
at 1st ICS (superior border of head of clavicle) if only IMNs are to be treated
• Inferior border – at xiphoid or higher if 1st three ICS covered

MRM vs. BCT (with RT)
6 RCT have shown no OS advantage after mastectomy or BCT
![Page 38: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
Whole Breast Radiotherapy Reduces Local failure
![Page 39: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/39.jpg)
The benefit of tumor bed boost
• Most authors report that 65-80% of breast recurrence occurs around primary tumour site.
• Various studies suggest that patients treated with higher doses have a greater probability of tumor control.
![Page 40: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/40.jpg)
Boost with electron beam
• Preferred over brachytherapy due to:-Relative ease in set up-Opd setting-Lower cost-Excellent results
![Page 41: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Boost with interstitial implant
• large breast and deep tumors(>4 cm)• HDR is as effective as LDR
![Page 42: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
EORTC 22881-10882: RND Boost Trial
• Purpose: – Most large randomized trials providing long term IBTR did not
use tumor bed boost Example NSABP trials
• Single institution trials suggested a benefit of a tumor bed boost
• Endpoint: • •OS and IBTR
![Page 43: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)

EORTC Boost vs. No Boost Trial
![Page 45: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
EORTC Boost trial: subgroup analysis Goal: Determine prognostic factors Central path review SM, LVI, grade, extend of DCIS, Mitotic Index + SM (14%), close (0-2mm) (27%, neg (> 2 mm) Median f/u 10 yrs
Results: MVA for LR: –Boost dose, high grade tumor, age < 50 y/o –10 yr Cumulative Incidence of IBTR: •7.3% (low) •8.4% (int) •13.7% (high)
Conclusions: -Patients at high risk for recurrence are those < 50 y/o and high grade tumor. Boost helps decrease the absolute risk most in these groups.
![Page 46: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
ASTRO Consensus Guidelines 2014 Margins for BCS With WBRT in Stages I and II Invasive Breast
Cancer
• Positive margins • A positive margin, defined as ink on invasive
cancer or DCIS -> 2-fold increase in IBTR. – This increased risk in IBTR is not nullified by:
Delivery of a boost dose of radiation – Delivery of systemic therapy (endocrine therapy,
chemotherapy, or biologic therapy), or – Favorable biology
![Page 47: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
• Margin Width • Negative margins (no ink on tumor) minimize the
risk of IBTR. • Wider margin widths do not significantly lower
this risk. • Systemic chemotherapy does NOT lower risk • The routine practice to obtain negative margin
widths wider than no ink on tumor is not indicated
![Page 48: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Hypofractionation
• Short treatment course improves experience for patients • Improves access to breast conservation
• Biology :Increased dose per fraction without compromising BED
• Decreased cost to deliver care • Concerns: Toxicity
![Page 49: Radiotherapy in Early stage invasive breast carcinoma](https://reader034.fdocuments.in/reader034/viewer/2022042907/5888e3f11a28ab87728b4861/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)

Accelerated Partial Breast Irradiation
• Rationale –Biology: Most recurrences occur within 2cm of
lumpectomy from prospective and RND trials.
• Decreased Treatment time and QOL • Potential reduction in treatment toxicity • Multiple techniques with short follow up

• Single lumen catheter – Typical dose (and on NSABP B31) RT: 34 Gy in 3.4 Gy fractions,
prescribed 1 cm from balloon – About 20% of RND trial – Needed balloon-to-skin dist >5 mm, cavity size < 6 cm
– Results at 3 years from registry: IBTR = 2.15% (4 yr=2.65%) – 3 yr axillary recurrence = 0.36% (4 yr=0.6%) – DM=1.1% – OS=95.6%
– Toxicity: infection: 9.5%, – Seroma: 27% (13% symptomatic) – 2% fat necrosis
• Cosmesis: Good or excellent at 4 yrs: 91% • Conclusions: Data consistent with other APBI techniques

Intra-op Conclusions
• Randomized data demonstrate safety and efficacy
• Allows post-surgery RT for high risk groups without toxicity
• Statistically Significant increase LRR vs WBRT • Long term data still lacking
