In almost all solid tumors—i.e. cancers with a solid tissue structure—the detection of tumor cells in the lymph nodes is considered a decisive marker for the progression of the disease. Lymph node ...
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 ...
