   Radiation therapy provides a useful adjunct to surgery by ensuring optimal local control in patients with node positivity. For patients undergoing breast-conserving surgery, radiation therapy has been shown to reduce locoregional recurrence and is therefore part of the current standard of care.

   The extent of lymph node metastases is a key determinant of patient outcome and survival in breast cancer. Traditionally, surgery was the reference standard for providing the lymph node staging informa-tion. As the use of neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NST) has in-creased and surgical management has evolved toward less extensive surgery when possibl...

   As the use of NST has increased and surgical management has evolved toward less extensive surgery when possible, radio-logic staging has become more important. The imperceptible cortex seen in a benign type I node or the thin 3-mm or less cortex of a type II node is replaced by a variable appearance of diffuse but symmetric cortical thick-ening see...

   Mar 30, 2020 · Radiation therapy of patients with breast cancer remains a challenging and rapidly changing treatment. Regional lymph node irradiation in younger trials appears to deliver superior target coverage as well as a reduction in long-term toxicity subsequent leading to a small benefit in the overall survival rate.

   Is regional node irradiation a useful adjuvant treatment for early breast cancer?

   • This changed with the publication of the Z0011 trial, where no differences were found between ALND and no-ALND after positive sentinel nodes. On the other hand, regional node irradiation is a crucial part of the adjuvant therapy in patients with lymph node-positive early breast cancer.
