Background
This study aimed to develop an easy to use prediction model to predict the risk of having a total of 1 to 2, ≥3, or ≥4 positive axillary lymph nodes (LNs), for patients with sentinel lymph node (SLN) positive breast cancer.
Methods
Data of 911 SLN positive breast cancer patients were used for model development. The model was validated externally in an independent population of 180 patients...
Background
We implemented selective use of frozen section (FS) to optimize accuracy and cost control in the intraoperative diagnosis of sentinel lymph node (SLN) in patients with breast cancer, guided by the Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC) nodal metastasis risk prediction nomogram.
Methods
Surgical pathology records were reviewed, examining 2582 consecutive biopsies from 2552 patients...
