To classify ipsilateral breast tumor recurrences (IBTR) as either new primary tumors (NP) or true local recurrence (TR). We utilized 2 different methods and compared sensitivities and specificities between them. Our goal was to determine whether distinguishing NP from TR had prognostic value. ⋯ Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrences classified as TR and NP had clinically different features, suggesting that classifying IBTR may provide clinically significant data for the management of IBTR.
