Variability in axillary lymph node dissection for breast cancer

Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2004
AbstractBackgroundThe axillary nodal status may influence the prognosis and the choice of adjuvant treatment of individual breast cancer patients. The variation in number of reported axillary lymph nodes and its effect on the axillary nodal stage were studied and the implications are discussed.MethodsBetween 1994 and 1997, a total of 4,806 axillary ...

Evaluation of Muscle Atrophy after Axillary Lymph Node Dissection

Acta Chirurgica Belgica, 2009
Axillary node status is the most important prognostic factor for patients with primary breast carcinoma, making axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) a standard surgical treatment of breast cancer. Postoperative sequelae to ALND is frequently reported. In this study we aimed to find out objectively, how much damage is caused to these nerves during ALND.

[Axillary reverse mapping. preserving nodes during an axillary lymph node dissection].

Nederlands tijdschrift voor geneeskunde, 2013
A considerable percentage of breast cancer patients who have undergone an axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) experience postoperative complications, with lymphoedema occurring most frequently. Axillary Reverse Mapping (ARM) is a new technique in which the lymphatic drainage system of the upper extremity can be visualized during an ALND.

Sentinel lymph-node biopsy compared to axillary lymph-node dissection for axillary staging in breast cancer patients

European Journal of Surgical Oncology (EJSO), 2001
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the feasibility of sentinel lymph-node biopsy in breast cancer patients at our institution and to compare the results of sentinel node (SN) biopsy to standard axillary lymph-node dissection (ALND).In a retrospective study the percentage of lymph-node positive patients and the number of micrometastases in 165 ...

Axillary lymph node dissection for malignant melanoma.

ANZ journal of surgery, 2012
Malignant melanoma is a common and life-threatening malignancy that often metastasizes to lymph nodes, necessitating lymph node dissections. Dissections aim for regional disease control. Dissections often result in significant morbidity and are associated with local recurrences (LRs) in the surgical field.

[SENTINEL LYMPH NODE BIOPSY AND AXILLARY DISSECTION].

Nihon Geka Gakkai zasshi, 2018
Dr. William Stewart Halsted first advocated performing total mastectomy with pectoral muscle resection and axillary lymph node dissection as the standard surgery for breast cancer. The effectiveness of the sentinel lymph node biopsy was confirmed 100 years later.
