The appropriate axillary procedure after a positive sentinel node in breast cancer patients: the “Hôpital Tenon” score revisited. A two-institution study
2016
Introduction
Until recently, completion ALND has been considered the standard of care after a positive SN in breast cancer patients. However, most patients will not display further axillary involvement. The Tenon score is a simple nomogram that can be used intraoperatively to avoid completion ALND in low-risk patients. We aimed at validating the Tenon score on a SN-positive patient sample that had been preoperatively selected using axillary US examination.
