Abstract
The authors describe a patient who, because of false shame, reported for treatment in the course of an advanced neoplastic process of the mamma. Combined treatment consisting of surgical castration, hormonotherapy and irradiation was applied. In about 30 per cent of patients thus treated a temporary remission or inhibition of the neoplastic process has been observed.
