    Axillopexy, a surgical technique following axillary lymph node excision for breast cancer, improved recovery times and reduced complications. This method enhances patient outcomes after mastectomy or quadrantectomy procedures.

    Area of Science:

    • Oncology
    • Surgical Techniques
    • Breast Cancer Management

    Background:

    • Axillary lymph node excision is a common procedure in breast cancer treatment.
    • Post-operative complications such as lymphorrhagia and delayed therapy initiation can impact patient recovery.
    • Standard surgical approaches may lead to prolonged morbidity.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To present and evaluate the efficacy of a novel axillopexy technique.
    • To compare axillopexy outcomes against a control group undergoing standard procedures.
    • To assess the impact of axillopexy on lymphorrhagia, local complications, and therapy timing.

    Main Methods:

    • Axillopexy technique applied in 29 breast cancer patients post-axillary lymph node excision.
    • Procedures performed after Madden modified radical mastectomy or quadrantectomy for external quadrant tumors.

  • Comparison with a control group of 30 patients.
  • Evaluation of lymphorrhagia duration, drain removal time, local complications, and time to adjuvant therapy.

    • Main Results:

    • The axillopexy group demonstrated significant improvements across all studied parameters.
    • Reduced duration of lymphorrhagia and earlier drain removal were observed.
    • Fewer local complications were noted in the axillopexy cohort.
    • The time to initiate postoperative oncological therapy was shortened.

    Conclusions:

    • Axillopexy is an effective technique for improving post-operative recovery after axillary lymph node dissection in breast cancer patients.
    • The technique contributes to reduced morbidity and facilitates timely commencement of adjuvant cancer treatment.
    • Axillopexy offers a promising surgical option for managing breast cancer patients undergoing lymph node excision.
