Abstract
Physicians occasionally come across with patients with locally advanced breast cancer (LABC) bringing about distress, due to tumor growth, invasion to the skin, bleeding or an ill smell. Physicians often experience much difficulty in selecting and administering therapeutic option. The clinical courses of patient who had been treated with total resection of LABC and an attachment of artificial dermis (TERUDERMIS) were mentioned. Elimination of the symptoms derived from the tumors could be successfully accomplished for all of the patients. Except for one patients who initially had bone metastasis and died 13 months after operation, the other patients have been alive under preferable condition without any signs for tumor recurrence. The surgical resection and an attachment of artificial dermis is quite reliable and helpful for both patients and physicians in palliating symptoms and reducing care for infections and hemorrhage due to LABC.
