Axillary Reverse Mapping in Breast Cancer
Axillary lymph node dissection represents the standard surgical treatment for breast cancer patients with clinically or histologically involved axillary lymph nodes. However, it is associated with significant morbidity, including postoperative arm lymphedema and neuropathy of the involved extremity, and seroma formation in the axilla (Noguchi et al., 1997). Particularly, arm lymphedema develops...
متن کاملAxillary reverse mapping in breast cancer with enlarged lymph node
Objective: The research is to explore the success rate and safety of axillary reverse mapping (ARM) and the effect on the function and lymphedema of ipsilateral upper limb, and to investigate the quality-of-life of patients with breast cancer after operation, as well as to explore the related factors affecting the success rate of ARM. Methods: In operation of 60 cases of female patients with en...
متن کاملDissection axillary lymph node count in patient with breast cancer followed by neoadjuvant therapy
Introduction: Breast cancer is the most common cancer and the second cause of death in women. It is essential to have the highest level of confidence in axillary staging assessment. Many surgeons and pathologists believe that fewer lymph nodes are present in axillary dissection specimens of women treated by neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Consequently, the purpose of this study was to compare the lym...
متن کاملStandardization of whole breast radiotherapy is required for safe omission of axillary lymph node dissection in breast cancer patients
Background: The purpose of this study was to assess the dose distribution and coverage of level Ⅰ-Ⅱ axillary lymph nodes during whole breast tangential field radiotherapy (RT) after breast-conserving surgery in patients with breast cancer. Materials and Methods: The level Ⅰ-Ⅱ axillary lymph node volumes were retrospectively contoured by a single radiation oncologist based on computed tomography...
متن کاملaxillary dissection in 44 breast cancer patients without seroma formation
background : seroma formation is a common problem following axillary dissection. it is probably caused by a local inflammatory response. local steroids may prevent this problem by inhibiting inflammatory response at the wound site. methods : this randomized prospective study was undertaken to evaluate the effect of local triamcinolone injection on seroma formation following axillary dissection....
