Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy or Detection of Micrometastasis in Bone Marrow: Which Might Be an Alternative to Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Breast Cancer Patients?

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2004
Axillary lymph node status has limited prognostic significance in breast cancer patients and much improvement can be made. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is emerging as an alternative to axillary lymph node dissection for staging, but its prognostic ...

Axillary lymph node metastasis in medullary thyroid carcinoma: A case report [PDF]

Iranian Journal of Otorhinolaryngology, 2017
Introduction: Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) is an uncommon neoplasm originating from parafollicular C cells. Distant metastasis in MTC, such as axillary node involvement, is extremely rare.

Axillary Lymph Node Dissection for T1a Breast Carcinoma [PDF]

Obstetrical & Gynecological Survey, 1994
Axillary dissection has been a routine part of breast cancer treatment for more than 100 years. Axillary node involvement is the single most important prognostic variable in patients with breast cancer. Recently, routine node dissection has been eliminated for intraductal carcinoma because so few patients had positive nodes.

De-escalation of axillary treatment in the event of a positive sentinel lymph node biopsy in cT1-2 N0 breast cancer treated with mastectomy:nationwide registry study (BOOG 2013-07) [PDF]

Background: Trials have demonstrated the safety of omitting completion axillary lymph node dissection in patients with cT1-2 N0 breast cancer operated with breast-conserving surgery who have limited metastatic burden in the sentinel lymph node.

Partial axillary dissection in early breast cancer

Alexandria Journal of Medicine, 2013
Background: In order to reduce the probability of later clinical involvement of the axilla and at establishing a sound basis for adjuvant treatment planning axillary dissection is an important operative procedure. So, partial axillary dissection has been

New classifications of axillary lymph nodes and their anatomical-clinical correlations in breast surgery

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2021
Background In the last decade, two research groups, the French group by Clough et al. (Br J Surg. 97:1659–65, 2010) and the Chinese one by Li et al. (ISRN Oncol 2013:279013, 2013), proposed two types of classification of axillary lymph nodes in breast ...

Positive axillary sentinel lymph node: Is axillary dissection always necessary?

The Breast, 2011
There is considerable interest in foregoing axillary dissection (AD) when the sentinel node (SN) is positive in early breast cancer, particularly when axillary involvement is minimal (micrometastases or isolated tumor cells). In fact, clinical practice has run ahead of the evidence, since recent population-based data indicate that AD is 'underused' in ...

A Better Understanding of Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in the Era of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Chirurgia, 2021
Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) was and still is an important part of breast cancer treatment despite the fact the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has revolutionized breast cancer surgery. SLNB provides the same prognostic information as ALND but with significantly less morbidity.
