The largest randomized trial of its kind to date found noninferior survival and better arm morbidity among patients with breast cancer who did not undergo completion axillary lymph node dissection.

SAN ANTONIO -- Patients with early breast cancer who skipped axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) lived just as long as those who underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), the randomized INSEMA ...

Trials evaluating the omission of completion axillary-lymph-node dissection in patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer and sentinel-lymph-node metastases have been compromised by limited ...

Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is a procedure to remove lymph nodes in the underarm area when breast cancer has spread, aiming to prevent further spread and recurrence. The procedure involves ...

Lymph node dissections, or lymphadenectomies, are surgical procedures that play an important role in cancer treatments. A healthcare professional will remove the lymph nodes and check a tissue sample ...

Caecal cancer and ascending colon cancer had slower rates of metastasis to main nodes compared with transverse colon cancer. Routine prophylactic extended lymphadenectomy for the superior mesenteric ...

Extended dissection did not improve recurrence-free or overall survival, but it may have a bladder cancer-specific survival benefit possibly because it removes micrometastases. Extended lymph node ...
