Area of Science:

  • Oncology
  • Surgical Oncology
  • Breast Cancer Research

Background:

  • Breast cancer treatment has evolved towards minimally invasive surgical techniques.
  • Breast-conserving surgery (BCS) combined with radiotherapy (RT) is the current standard of care.
  • Traditional wire-guided localization for non-palpable tumors is being superseded by advanced marking methods.

Conclusions:

  • The trend in breast cancer surgery is towards less invasive approaches.
  • The prognostic value of axillary clearance in sentinel node-positive patients is under scrutiny.
  • Emerging data, including the SENOMAC trial, may lead to a paradigm shift from axillary clearance to axillary radiotherapy.
