Skipping standard axillary lymph node dissection led to very low rates of axillary recurrence in patients with node-positive breast cancer who became node-negative following neoadjuvant chemotherapy, ...
Targeted axillary dissection (TAD) is a relatively new breast cancer procedure. It allows surgical oncologists to specifically locate a lymph node that contained cancer before chemotherapy, remove it ...
MIAMI BEACH -- The surgical dogma favoring axillary dissection in breast cancer continues to give way to more selective data-driven strategies that allow more women to avoid axillary surgery, an ...
In the AXSANA/EUBREAST 3(R) study, researchers compared data about recurrence outcomes of more-invasive and less-invasive lymph node procedures.
Risk factor for axillary lymph node metastases in microinvasive breast cancer. Background: The study of the sentinel node biopsy is a common method to assess axillary involvement before surgical ...
More women could potentially be spared an axillary lymph node dissection -- the surgical removal of 10-20 lymph nodes -- a procedure that causes disabling arm swelling in up to 25% of women, according ...
Prospective Multicentric Randomized Study Comparing Periareolar and Peritumoral Injection of Radiotracer and Blue Dye for the Detection of Sentinel Lymph Node in Breast Sparing Procedures: FRANSENODE ...
Women with hormone receptor (HR)–positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)–negative breast cancer who have one positive sentinel node and no high-risk features can likely be spared ...
Axillary reverse mapping (ARM) is an innovative surgical technique aimed at accurately delineating the lymphatic drainage of the upper extremity from that of the breast during axillary lymph node ...
Dye is injected into the breast, one to four of the nodes is identified with a probe and removed to see if cancer cells are present. Lymph nodes are small organs, typically ranging from the size of a ...
Recently, omission of axillary lymph node dissection among patients with early breast cancer has been found to have no detrimental effect on outcomes in most cases, continuing a trend toward less ...
