Findings from NSABP protocol no. B‐04‐comparison of radical mastectomy with alternative treatments for primary breast cancer. I. Radiation compliance and its relation to treatment outcome
Bernard Fisher,Eleanor D. Montague,Carol K. Redmond,Melvin Deutsch,George R. Brown,Ann G. Zauber,William F. Hanson,Audrey Wong +7 more
TL;DR: Analysis of data demonstrated that there was a remarkable similarity in the incidence and rate of treatment failure (TF) or mortality between patients having some radiation variation, regardless of its degree or extent and those who were treated with no protocol variation, suggesting that there is some acceptable leeway in the use of radiation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Barrier function of lymph node to tumor cells and erythrocytes. I. Normal nodes.
Bernard Fisher,Edwin R. Fisher +1 more
TL;DR: The authors concluded that retention of either erythrocytes or tumor cells is not influenced by cannulation of efferent lymphatics of nodes and lymph collection, and that tumor cells themselves may be as great or greater a determinant of their residence in nodes as are the biological and mechanical properties of such nodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

New perspective on cancer of the contralateral breast: a marker for assessing tamoxifen as a preventive agent.
Bernard Fisher,Carol K. Redmond +1 more
TL;DR: The contralateral breast of a woman with breast cancer has recently taken on new significance: It has assumed importance as a marker for assessing the worth of a putative breast cancer preventive agent.
Journal ArticleDOI
