Subtype Is a Predictive Factor of Nonsentinel Lymph Node Involvement in Sentinel Node-Positive Breast Cancer Patients
PURPOSE This study aimed to identify the effect of breast cancer subtype on nonsentinel lymph node (NSLN) metastasis in patients with a positive sentinel lymph node (SLN). METHODS The records of 104 early breast cancer patients with a positive SLN between April 2009 and September 2013 were retrospectively evaluated. All patients underwent axillary lymph node dissection. The effects of the tum...
متن کاملPredictors for nonsentinel node involvement in breast cancer patients with micrometastases in the sentinel lymph node.
Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in breast cancer allows for a more thorough pathologic assessment with serial sectioning and cytokeratin staining. This has resulted in increased detection of micrometastatic disease (tumor size < 2 mm) in the SLN. Unfortunately, the value of completion axillary dissection after finding micrometastatic disease in the SLN remains poorly defined. Over a 2-year per...
متن کاملIncreased sentinel lymph node lymphangiogenesis is associated with nonsentinel axillary lymph node involvement in breast cancer patients with a positive sentinel node.
PURPOSE Lymph node (LN) lymphangiogenesis has recently been shown to be important in the premetastatic niche of sentinel LNs. To study its role in the further metastatic spread of human breast cancer, we investigated the association of angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis in sentinel LN metastases with the presence of nonsentinel LN metastases in breast cancer patients with a positive sentinel LN...
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 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...
