Thank you

Statics for your question is definitely available. It depends on the stage of the disease, hormonal status, histopathology report, ER, PR, HER status
Stage 1 post menopausal (no lymph node involvement,no skin infiltration, HER negative, Er, PR positive) cure rate is 95 percent without any chemotherapy but hormone therapy is added to prevent the recurrence as the incidental factors in the body persist.
The percentage of survival falls as the stage of the disease increases. Chemotherapy and hormone therapy have a definite role after surgery as they improve the survival and cure between 20 to 40 percent with and without chemotherapy.
Chemotherapy is adjuvant after complete removal of the disease to take care of any cancer cell that may have leaked in the circulatory system system.
I hope I have been able to reply your query.
