What is Axillary Staging for Breast Cancer During Pregnancy: Feasibility and Safety of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy about?
## Background: Safety of sentinel lymph node (sln) biopsy for breast cancer during pregnancy is insufficiently explored. we investigated efficacy and local recurrence rate in a large series of pregnant patients. ## Patients and methods: Women diagnosed with breast cancer who underwent sln biopsy during pregnancy were identified from the international network on cancer, infertility and pregnancy, the german breast group, and the cancer and pregnancy registry. chart review was performed to record technique and outcome of sln biopsy, locoregional and distant recurrence, and survival. ## Results: We identified 145 women with clinically n0 disease who underwent sln during pregnancy. the sln detection techniques were as follows: tc-labeled albumin nanocolloid only (n = 96; 66.2%), blue dye only (n = 14; 9.7%), combined technique (n = 15; 10.3%), or unknown (n = 20; 13.8%). mapping was unsuccessful in one patient (0.7%) and she underwent an axillary lymph node dissection (alnd). mean number of slns was 3.2 (interquartile range 1-3; missing n = 15). positive slns were found in 43 (29.7%) patients and 34 subsequently underwent alnd. after a median follow-up of 48 months (range 1-177), 123 (
