A New Model for Predicting Non-Sentinel Lymph Node Status in Chinese Sentinel Lymph Node Positive Breast Cancer Patients
BACKGROUND Our goal is to validate the Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) nomogram and Stanford Online Calculator (SOC) for predicting non-sentinel lymph node (NSLN) metastasis in Chinese patients, and develop a new model for better prediction of NSLN metastasis. METHODS The MSKCC nomogram and SOC were used to calculate the probability of NSLN metastasis in 120 breast cancer patie...
متن کاملSentinel lymph node in cervical cancer
Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women. Effective screening programs can help cancer detection in early phases and reduce death. Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...
متن کاملsentinel node ratio as a predictor of non-sentinel lymph node involvement
background: sentinel lymph node biopsy (slnb) has replaced axillary lymph node dissection (alnd) in early breast cancer patients as the first line surgical approach to axillary nodes. further dissection is performed only when sln is involved by tumor cells. however, in a significant proportion of patients, non-sentinel nodes are still not involved and axillary dissection has no additional thera...
متن کاملAxillary sentinel node and tumour-related factors associated with non-sentinel node involvement in breast cancer.
BACKGROUND After completion of axillary dissection, many breast cancer patients with axillary sentinel nodal involvement are found to have regional disease limited to the sentinel nodes. These patients are exposed to the morbidity of axillary clearance without any expected therapeutic benefit. METHODS Sentinel node biopsy was performed either with Patent blue dye or with a combined dye, radio...
متن کاملPredictive factors of non-sentinel lymph node involvement in patients with invasive breast cancer and sentinel node micrometastases.
Patient-related, tumor-related, and sentinel node (SN)-related factors have been identified with the aim of predicting non-SN status in patients with SN micrometastases. According to our previous experience, primary tumor size (p=0.005) and the presence of lymphovascular invasion (LVI) (p=0.000) significantly predicted non-SN status in patients with SN micrometastasis; moreover, non-SN metastas...
