The St. Gallen International Expert Consensus Conference on the Primary Therapy of Early Breast Cancer 2017: Egyptian view

Purpose The theme of the 15th St. Gallen International Breast Cancer Conference 2017 in Vienna, Austria was about seeking where appropriate to escalate or de-escalate therapies for early breast cancer based on the up-to-date information of loco-regional and systemic therapies. Along with this line, a group of Egyptian experts decided to arrange for a consensus session to elicit the differences and similarities in therapy recommendations for early breast cancer in Egypt compared to the original Saint Gallen voting and recommendations.
