The most frequent localization of the recurrent disease was the site of prior excision; in 39% of the patients recurrence developed early, i.e. within the first two years after initial treatment. As a secondary surgical procedure, mastectomy was the most frequent, after which 5 patients presented with repeated recurrence.
