From 1978 to 1982 at the Oncology Unit of the Rho Hospital, we followed 96 women who had been operated for breast cancer. In 22 cases (23%) the first signs of recurrence were changes in the following: physical examination (9), symptoms (7), ESR (3), bone scan (2), alkaline phosphatase (1), chest X-ray (1). An adequate follow-up schedule is based on the following: a) limited examinations causing little disturbance to the patient, easily feasible, sensitive, specific, and of limited cost; b) lead-intervals of various tests set according to the risk of relapse; c) critical periodic review of the series, with constant updating of information in the literature.
