- Researchers studied how axillary surgery practices have changed over time following neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) in breast cancer patients enrolled in the I-SPY2 trial from 2011 to 2021.
- The findings showed a significant decrease in axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) procedures, particularly in patients who were clinically node-positive (cN+) at diagnosis, with a corresponding increase in the use of sentinel lymph node (SLN) surgery.
- These trends indicate a shift in surgical practices, with less extensive surgery being performed after NAC, particularly for patients showing node positivity before treatment, reflecting evolving clinical approaches prior to further research outcomes.
