We are UK Breast Surgeons who revised together for our exit exams and hope you'll find our revision notes as helpful as we did! We discuss the latest guidelines and landmark evidence behind current practices in breast surgery. This is relevant for anyone revising for FRCS, board exams, fellowship and continuing professional development. Any questions or comments - tweet us @ercstjohn @hirahrizki01 . Thank you to Professor John Benson for helping us to edit this content.
Here we discuss the landmark trials for Bisphosphonate treatment in early breast cancer.
