However, the rate of breast cancer recurrence was roughly equal for both groups. That suggests that post-op chemotherapy/radiation was usually sufficient to deal with any stray cancer lurking in the lymph nodes of all the patients, the Stockholm team said. There was a downside to opting for m...
Osteopontin promotes tumor growth in several cancer types. Here, in a preclinical model recapitulating features of human breast cancer recurrence, the authors report that osteopontin promotes the recruitment of immunosuppressive macrophages and its targeting reduces breast tumor growth and metastasis. Yu ...
However, dissection of levels I and II (which provide a sufficient number of lymph nodes), integrated in modern therapy strategies with systemic therapy for axillary node-positive patients, show acceptable low rates of lo- cal recurrence [4, 6, 14]. However, the incidence of sero- ma ...
Conclusions: In-transit lymph nodes associated with the afferent SN lymph vessels seem to occur in a significant proportion of patients with breast cancer. These lymph nodes may contain metastases, which are a potential source of local recurrence when left in situ. This finding generates the hypoth...
This cohort study of patients with breast cancer in South Korea examines differences in patterns of locoregional recurrence according to the molecular
B: Enlargement of tumor-involved lymph node is seen with the invasion and growth of cancer cells. B cells accumulate in tumor-involved lymph nodes (germinal centers are depicted as darker blue), whereas the overall T cell compartment contracts. Of note, the regulatory T cell population has ...

BACKGROUNDAdjuvant therapy for women with T1–T2 breast carcinoma and 1–3 positive lymph nodes is controversial due to discrepancies in repo...
Axillary Recurrence after Negative Sentinel Lymphnode Biopsy; a Multicentre Cohort Study. IntroductionSentinel Lymphnode Biopsy (SLNB) is generally excepted as a minimal invasive technique to stage the axilla in clinically node negative breast cancer patients.
