Selective Omission of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Mastectomy for Ductal Carcinoma in Situ: Identifying Eligible Candidates
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This study aimed to assess the prevalence of upgrade to invasive breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis in patients who were diagnosed with DCIS on biopsy and subsequently underwent mastectomy with axillary surgery to establish the need for SLNB. Furthermore, we explored the clinicopathologic features related to the upgrade to invasive breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis.

DCIS Mastectomy Patients who undergo mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy for DCIS at biopsy |
Procedure: Mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Axillary lymph node metastasis rate [up to 2 weeks after surgery]
Our primary objective was to identify the axillary lymph node metastasis rate in patients with DCIS at diagnosis who underwent mastectomy with axillary surgery.
