Three cases of advanced breast cancer treated with preoperative systemic chemotherapy (FAC) were reported. Radical mastectomy was performed in all three cases after partial response to the systemic chemotherapy. Systemic chemotherapy itself is easy to manage and its resulting response rates and side effects are comparable to those of intra-arterial infusion chemotherapy.

In order to improve the poor prognosis of advanced breast cancer cases with positive parasternal lymph nodes metastasis, prophylactic oophorectomy was performed in 25 unselected cases. In a retrospective study on the breast cancer cases operated on from 1958 to 1969, comparison of eight advanced breast cancer cases with positive parasternal lymph nodes metastasis after radical mastectomy of Halsted type and parasternal lymph nodes dissection with, and 17 cases without prophylactic bilateral oophorectomy was made with respect to the survival rate, the survival time pattern by Mantel-Haenszel's procedure in their entirety and the recurrence rate. These results suggest the effectiveness of prophylactic oophorectomy for the advanced breast cancer.

So-called authors' lithogenic bile [Ch greater than 7.5 mg/ml, (TBS + PL)/Ch weight ratio less than 20] corresponds to the bile which falls well above the micellar zone boundary on triangular coordinates with high concentration of cholesterol. The authors supposed that, in man like hamsters and squirrel monkeys, in the process of alimentary formation of cholesterol gallstones gallbladder bile of which cholesterol concentration was high, and (TBS + PL)/Ch ratio was as low as that of gallbladder bile with cholestrol gallstones seemed to be lithogenic.
