Background The most optimal surgical strategy for ipsilateral isolated axillary recurrence (AR) in breast cancer is unknown. Axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has historically been implemented; however, there may be an evolving role for targeted axillary dissection (TAD). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on patients with invasive breast cancer, followed by AR.

Axillary surgery in breast cancer has evolved from radical dissections to selective de-escalations. Identifying patients who may safely omit sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) can further reduce the surgical burden, post operative complications and financial toxicity associated with breast cancer surgical care. The MD Anderson "Nomogram To Predict Positive Sentinel Lymph Nodes After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy" is widely available and free of charge to assess SLNB positivity post neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT).

Objective: To assess the impact of axillary surgery de-escalation trends on general surgery resident and breast surgical oncology fellow exposure to axillary lymph node dissection cases.
Design: Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education case logs were retrospectively analyzed with attention to change over time. Trends in axillary lymph node dissection were evaluated using univariate linear regression.

Background: The current study aimed to determine whether results could justify whether axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) could be further de-escalated in selected patients having neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC).
Methods: Retrospective analyses were performed for breast cancer patients treated with NAC from 2015 to 2023. Abnormal axillary nodes evaluated by pretreatment ultrasound had core biopsies with microclip placement.
