Purpose: To correlate patient-, tumor-, and treatment-related factors with subsequent local tumor control.Methods and Materials: From 1977 to 1990, 196 subcutaneous/superficial lesions (179 measurable, 17 microscopic) in 151 patients with recurrent breast carcinoma of the chest wall were treated with superficial 915-MHz microwave hyperthermia and irradiation. The definition of min t(43) greater than or equal to 10 min is that all monitored tumor catheters had a minimum of 1 hyperthermia session with temperatures >43 degrees C for at least 10 min.Results: Factors correlating with local control on univariate analysis included length of survival (greater than or equal to 1 year vs.
