Patients with early-stage breast cancer who had cancer detected in a sentinel lymph node biopsy had comparable 10-year recurrence and survival rates following either axillary radiotherapy or axillary ...
To independently evaluate the impact of axillary surgery type and regional lymph node radiation (RLNR) on breast cancer–related lymphedema (BCRL) rates in patients with breast cancer. The results of ...
The purpose of this study was to examine the use of ultrasound (US)-guided core biopsy of axillary nodes in patients with operable breast cancer. The ipsilateral axillae of 187 patients with suspected ...
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 ...
A total of 751 women clinically node negative post-NACT underwent LAS (excision of lymph node [LN] and fat below first intercostobrachial nerve). Of these women, 730 also underwent SNB by dual ...
