AGO Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Patients with Early Breast Cancer: Update 2014

[摘要] For the last 13 years, the Breast Committee of the Arbeitsgemeinschaft Gynäkologische Onkologie (German Gynecological Oncology Group, AGO) has been preparing and updating evidence-based recommendations for the diagnosis and treatment of patients with early and metastatic breast cancer. The AGO Breast Committee consists of gynecological oncologists specialized in breast cancer and interdisciplinary members specialized in pathology, radiological diagnostics, medical oncology, and radiation oncology. This update has been performed according to a documented rule-fixed algorithm, by thoroughly reviewing and scoring chapter by chapter the recent publications for their scientific validity (Oxford level of evidence (LoE), www.cebm.net [1]) and clinical relevance (AGO grades of recommendation (GR); table ​table1).1). We present the 2014 update; the full version of the updated slide set is available online as a PDF file in both English and German [2].
