Proceedings of the 3rd International Congress on Neo-Adjuvant Chemotherapy

Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy has been introduced by Professor Claude Jacquillat during the 1980's. When started as soon as the diagnosis has been established by drill biopsy or biopsy, according to the tumoral sites, this treatment allows tumoral reduction and thus improves the efficacy of local control measures such as radiotherapy or surgery. Finally, it is responsible for an improvement in relapse-free survival. This book covers international results obtained thanks to the relatively new treatment strategy.
