    • Stage II

    Tumor was larger than 2.25 cm and has happened metastase lymph nodes in the armpit. At this stage, the possibility to recover only 30 – 40% depending on the extent of the spread of cancer cells. In stage I and II are usually performed surgery to remove cancer cells that have spread to all parts, and radiation after surgery performed to ensure there are no more cancer cells left behind.
