Research on the association of breast cancer patients’ prognosis with internal mammary sentinel lymph node biopsy by JIA Ruijie, SHI Zhiqiang, ZHANG Qi, LU Yongjin, ZHENG Junsheng, SUN Jing, BI Zhao, SUN Xiao, WANG Yongsheng, QIU Pengfei

“…The exploratory subgroup analysis of DFS revealed that patients in the following subgroups could significantly benefit from IM-SLNB (P&lt;0.05): diagnosis age (≤50 years), premenopausal status, BMI (≤24), lymphovascular invasion (LVI, present), tumor location (lateral), molecular subtype [hormone receptor positive (HR+)/ human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-)], histological type (invasive ductal carcinoma), and axillary lymph node status (positive). Conclusion: IMSLNB can provide more accurate regional lymph node staging for early breast cancer, help optimize adjuvant radiotherapy strategies, and improve patients’ DFS and RRFS. …”
