Background: The targeted axillary dissection (TAD) procedure is used in clinically positive lymph node (cN+) breast cancer to assess whether pathological complete response (pCR) is achieved after neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST) to decide on de-escalation of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND).

Methods: All TAD procedures between 2016 and 2022 were reviewed.
