Invasive ductal breast cancer may recur after total excision.
In clinic, even with active treatment, cancer may recur, so does breast cancer. After total excision of invasive ductal breast cancer, only the cancerous tissues visible to the naked eye are removed, and there is a possibility that the cancerous cells may remain in the blood vessels and lymphatic vessels, and once the cancerous cells are left behind, the residual cancerous cells will proliferate, which will lead to the recurrence of breast cancer.
After the occurrence of breast cancer, comprehensive treatment is needed. If there is no contraindication to surgery, modified radical mastectomy is feasible, which refers to total excision of breast. After the surgery, chemotherapy, endocrine therapy, radiotherapy and targeted therapy can be assisted, which can reduce the recurrence rate.
