We report our experience with 95 cases of breast carcinoma, operated during the years 1983-1985, to which was performed as exploratory methodical, among others, an ultrasound and a mammogram. The images are described, both mammography and ultrasound, we have found. In mammography screening, we obtained a 12.63% false negative, which then corresponded to carcinomas in stages T1 and T2. We study the correlation with other exploration techniques. Ultrasound there was a 21.05% false negative. The importance of mammography is valued more accurate method, although advising be supplemented with other diagnostic methods.

The results obtained from 95 patients who underwent breast cancer during the biennium 1983-1985, by type of intervention performed analyzes. In most patients they have undergone a modified PATEY, following the HALSTED number and a simple mastectomy, more cleaning axillary The lymph nodes was classified into 3 levels or stages. Our approach is to keep the pectoralis major long as it is not affected by the tumor and removal of the pectoralis minor, for better subclavian surgical time.
