Update Breast Cancer 2023 Part 3 – Expert Opinions of Early Stage Breast Cancer Therapies

The St. Gallen (SG) International Breast Cancer Conference is held every two years, previously in St. Gallen and now in Vienna. This year (2023) marks the eighteenth edition of this conference, which focuses on the treatment of patients with early-stage breast carcinoma. A panel discussion will be held at the end of this four-day event, during which a panel of experts will give their opinions on current controversial issues relating to the treatment of early-stage breast cancer patients. To this end, questions are generally formulated in such a way that clinically realistic cases are presented – often including poignant hypothetical modifications. This review reports on the outcome of these discussions and summarises the data associated with individual questions raised.
