Minimize the extent and morbidity of axillary dissection for node-positive breast cancer patients: implementation of axillary lymph node dissection based on breast lymphatics level

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2021
Background Breast cancer-related lymphedema (BCRL) is associated with extensive axillary dissection. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) based on breast lymphatics level (BLL) was proposed to minimize the surgical extent for node-positive breast cancer

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.

Sequelae following axillary lymph node dissection for breast cancer

open access: yesExpert 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 ...
