Selective Omission of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Mastectomy for Ductal Carcinoma in Situ: Identifying Eligible Candidates

This study aimed to assess the prevalence of upgrade to invasive breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis in patients who were diagnosed with DCIS on biopsy and subsequently underwent mastectomy with axillary surgery to establish the need for SLNB. Furthermore, we explored the clinicopathologic features related to the upgrade to invasive breast cancer and axillary lymph node metastasis.

Key information

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Women diagnosed with DCIS in preoperative biopsy samples obtained by core needle biopsy, vacuum-assisted breast biopsy, or excisional biopsy
  • Women underwent curative surgery for DCIS

Exclusion criteria

  • Patients who received breast-conserving surgery
  • Patients who had concurrent contralateral invasive breast cancer
  • Patients who were in case of ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence
  • Patients whose invasiveness was uncertain in the biopsy samples

Treatment and study plan

Mastectomy with sentinel lymph node biopsy

Procedure

Primary outcomes

  1. Axillary lymph node metastasis rate

    Time frame: up to 2 weeks after surgery

    Our primary objective was to identify the axillary lymph node metastasis rate in patients with DCIS at diagnosis who underwent mastectomy with axillary surgery.
