Before matching, Unadjusted Kaplan–Meier survival analysis of (A) axillary recurrence-free survival (ARFS), (B) distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS), (C) overall survival (OS), and (D) breast cancer-specific survival (BCSS) between the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) only and axillary...
The purpose of this study is to report the results of sentinel node (SN) biopsy for assessment of early breast cancer in Taiwan and to compare our results with those in other Asian countries and worldwide. We used methylene blue dye to identify SN in patients with clinically non-palpable br...
Women with breast cancer who were scheduled for neoadjuvant chemotherapy were enrolled into the study. Patients with clinically node-negative disease (cN0) underwent sentinel-lymph-node biopsy before neoadjuvant chemotherapy (arm A). If the sentinel node was positive (pN1), a second sentinel-lymph-...
The evolution of sentinel node biopsy has placed new emphasis on the biology of lymphatic metastases in breast cancer. If radiocolloid mimics the migration of tumor cells, the nodes with the most uptake should also be the most likely to harbor metastatic cells. We attempted to correlate the fre...
Objective Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLN) using blue dye and radioisotope is a widely used tool in the staging of breast cancer. However, multiple SLNs are frequently found. We sought to determine whether there is safe number of SLNs at which to stop the procedure without affecting accuracy...

This cohort study evaluates the frequency and temporal trend of sentinel lymph node biopsy among US women with inflammatory breast cancer.
The aim of this study was to assess long-term quality of life (QoL) over a period of 6 years in women with breast cancer (BC) who underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), or SLNB followed by ALND. Methods: The European Organisation for Research...
