Chapter 086. Breast Cancer (Part 13) Follow-Up of Breast Cancer Patients Despite the availability of sophisticated and expensive imaging techniques and a wide range of serum tumor marker tests, survival is not influenced by early diagnosis of relapse. Surveillance guidelines are given in Table 86-5. Table 86-5 Breast Cancer Surveillance Guidelines Test Frequency Recommended History; eliciting symptoms; physical examination q3–6 months x 3 years; q6– 12 months x 2 years; then annually Breast self-examination Monthly Mammography Annually Pelvic examination Annually Patient education about symptoms of recurrence Ongoing Coordination of care Ongoing Not Recommended Complete blood count Serum chemistry studies Chest radiographs Bone scans Ultrasound examination of the liver Computed tomography of chest, abdomen, or pelvis Tumor marker CA 15-3, CA 27-29 Tumor marker CEA Source: Recommended Breast Cancer Surveillance Guidelines , ASCO Education Book, Fall, 1997.
