DOI: 10.1002/jso.27241
Abstract: BACKGROUND Although sentinel lymph node dissection (SLND) after neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) is feasible, axillary management for patients with pretreatment biopsy-proven axillary metastases and who are clinically node-negative after NAC (ycN0) remains unclear. This retrospective study… read more here.
