Omission of Axillary Lymph Node Dissection is Associated with Inferior Survival in Breast Cancer Patients with Residual N1 Nodal Disease Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy

Muayad F. Almahariq et al.

Summary: The study compared the survival outcomes of breast cancer patients with residual lymph node disease who underwent sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) or axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) using the National Cancer Database (NCDB). The results showed that SLND was associated with lower survival rates compared to ALND in matched cohorts, suggesting that ALND may be preferred over SLND for patients with residual lymph node disease. Further prospective trials are needed to confirm the efficacy of SLND in this patient population.
