Lymphangiogenesis in breast cancer is associated with non-sentinel lymph node metastases in sentinel node positive patients.
Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is not suggested in breast cancer patients with negative sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsies, and SLN is the only positive node in 40-70% of the remaining cases. To distinguish a subgroup in which ALND would be omitted, we investigated the role of lymphangiogenesis in primary breast cancer as a risk factor for distal lymph node involvements in patients with ...
متن کاملIdentification of the sentinel node in patients with breast cancer.
Sentinel node analysis represents a significant advance in the diagnosis and treatment of invasive breast cancer. The traditional crude method of full axillary dissection for assessing the status of the axillary nodes can now be discarded in favor of the much more elegant and modern approach of minimally invasive sentinel node analysis and its attendant elimination of the morbidity of tradition...
متن کاملClinicopathological parameters and biological markers predicting non-sentinel node metastasis in sentinel node-positive breast cancer patients.
The value of complete axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has been questioned in invasive breast cancer (IBC) patients with positive sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) who have no non-sentinel lymph node (NSLN) metastases. Because biological markers have not been systematically studied in this setting, we sought to identify clinicopathological characteristics and biological markers for predicting NS...
متن کاملClinical outcome of patients with lymph node-positive prostate cancer following radical prostatectomy and extended sentinel lymph node dissection.
OBJECTIVE This study sought to evaluate the clinical outcome after extended sentinel lymph node dissection (eSLND) and radical retropubic prostatectomy (RRP) in patients with clinically localized prostate cancer (PCa). SUBJECTS AND METHODS From August 2002 until February 2011, a total of 819 patients with clinically localized PCa, confirmed by biopsy, were treated with RRP plus eSLND. Biochem...
متن کاملA 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...
