Research on Omitting Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy after Neoadjuvant Therapy in cN1 Breast Cancer Patients

Cancer Medicine, Volume 15, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Some patients with clinically node‐positive (cN1) breast cancer (BC) can achieve axillary pathological complete response (apCR) in axillary lymph nodes (ALNs) after neoadjuvant therapy (NAT). This study investigated predictors of post‐NAT pathological node‐negative (ypN0) status in cN1 breast cancer patients to identify candidates ...
