The Need for Axillary Dissection in Patients with Positive Axillary Sentinel Lymph Nodes

Current Oncology Reports, 2010
The need for completion axillary dissection after a positive sentinel node biopsy continues to be challenged. In the 2 years since we last reviewed this subject, a number of authors have shared their experiences about micrometastatic disease and isolated tumor cells, opining both for and against axillary treatment.

Axillary lymph node dissection is not obligatory in breast cancer patients with biopsy-proven axillary lymph node metastasis

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 2020
The ACOSOG Z0011 trial demonstrated that axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is unnecessary in select patients with cT1-2N0 tumors undergoing breast-conserving therapy with 1-2 positive sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs). However, patients with preoperatively confirmed ALN metastasis were not included and may be subjected to unnecessary 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 ...

Predictors of Completion Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Patients with Positive Sentinel Lymph Nodes

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2009
Completion axillary lymph node dissection (CALND) is routinely performed in breast cancer patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes (SLN). We sought to determine the sociodemographic, pathologic, and therapeutic variables that were associated with CALND.From 7/1997 to 7/2003, 1,470 patients with invasive breast cancer were SLN positive by ...

A Radical Axillary Lymph Node Dissection for Malignancy

Archives of Surgery, 1961
While over the years various descriptions of axillary lymph node dissections have appeared, the method to be described has proved particularly satisfactory.1,5,6It can be performed thoroughly, from an anatomical point of view, and it produces a good functional and cosmetic result. The morbidity and mortality rate is low.

Sequelae following axillary lymph node dissection for breast cancer

Expert Review of Anticancer Therapy, 2006
Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has a central role in the surgical management of breast cancer; however, it is associated with a potentially significant morbidity. Although post-ALND complications are often minor, in some cases they can persist for a long time following surgery, thereby affecting the quality of life of breast cancer survivors ...

Unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection in the era of sentinel lymph node biopsy.

Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2015
71 Background: No population-based effectiveness studies have been performed to determine to what extent breast cancer patients are benefiting from sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). This study investigates the extent of unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) by surgeon volume and specialty, and estimates the resultant rates of excess ...

[Standardized skill of mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection].

Zhonghua wai ke za zhi [Chinese journal of surgery], 2005
To investigate the standardized skill of mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection (MALND).The clinical results and operation experiences of 473 mastoscopic lymph node dissections performed were analyzed.The operation time was 22 - 156 minutes with the average of 42. The operative bleeding was minimal.
