Axillary dissection compared to sentinel node biopsy for the treatment of pathologically node-negative breast cancer: a meta-analysis of four randomized trials with long-term follow up

open access: yesOncology Reviews, 2012
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is now accepted as the initial approach for women with early stage breast cancer with clinically node-negative disease. We performed a pooled analysis of trials comparing axillary lymph node dissection to sentinel lymph node ...

Physical therapies for reducing and controlling lymphoedema of the limbs. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background Lymphoedema is the accumulation of excess fluid in the body caused by obstruction of the lymphatic drainage mechanisms. Management involves decongesting the reduced lymphatic pathways in order to reduce the size of the limb.

Axillary dissection in the context of the biology of lymph node metastases

open access: yesThe American Journal of Surgery, 2000
Modern breast surgery, as the primary treatment of invasive breast carcinoma, has been evolving over the last century. Aggressive radical surgery, which included chest wall resection, complete axillary clearance and internal mammary node dissection, has slowly changed to a less aggressive approach.

No Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Breast Cancer Patients with Sentinel Lymph Node Micrometastasis [PDF]

open access: yesAdvances in Breast Cancer Research, 2014
Follow-up data of a series of 75 breast cancer patients with sentinel node (SN) micrometastases only (between 0.2 and 2 mm) and favorable histopathological features of the primary tumor (well-differentiated, T1 tumors without lymphovascular invasion) who refused completion axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) or who were unsuitable for surgery ...

Sentinel Node Biopsy Alone versus Completion Axillary Node Dissection in Node Positive Breast Cancer: Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

open access: yesInternational Journal of Breast Cancer, 2014
Introduction. There has been recent interest in validity of completion axillary node dissection after a positive sentinel node. This systematic review aims to ascertain if sentinel lymph node dissection alone was noninferior to axillary lymph node ...

Positive sentinel lymph nodes should be followed by axillary lymph node dissection [PDF]

open access: yesBreast Cancer Online, 2007
The use of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has revolutionized breast surgery for early stage breast cancer. SLNB accurately stages the axilla without the morbidity of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). While allowing those patients with No disease to avoid a potentially morbid dissection, SLNB is a diagnostic procedure which identifies nodal ...

Autophagy‐Mediated Suppression of Tumor Growth by Food‐Grade Lipid Nanoparticles in Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This work reveals a novel extracellular nanoparticle transport and metabolic pathway. Following cellular uptake, Food‐grade lipid nanoparticles (FLNs) selectively fuse with lipid droplets (LDs) rather than lysosomes, driving LDs accumulation. This process activates autophagy through the AMPK‐mTOR‐ULK1 signaling axis, facilitating tumor progression ...
