De-escalation of axillary surgery in breast cancer : patient experiences, arm morbidity, and health-related quality of life Open
In breast cancer surgery for node-positive disease, axillary staging surgery is typically performed alongside the tumour removal. Arm morbidity is a known consequence of axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Although current studies are i…

‘Balancing Challenges and Personal Resources’: A Qualitative Study of Women's Experiences of Arm Impairment After Axillary Surgery for Breast Cancer Open
Aim To explore how women previously treated for breast cancer experience living with arm impairment after axillary surgery. Design Descriptive qualitative study. The inductive starting point for the analysis was followed by a deductive app…

Surgical Management of the Axilla in Clinically Node-Positive Breast Cancer Patients Converting to Clinical Node Negativity through Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy: Current Status, Knowledge Gaps, and Rationale for the EUBREAST-03 AXSANA Study Open
In the last two decades, surgical methods for axillary staging in breast cancer patients have become less extensive, and full axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) is confined to selected patients. In initially node-positive patients under…

Recurrence and survival after standard versus oncoplastic breast-conserving surgery for breast cancer Open
Background Oncoplastic techniques in breast-conserving surgery (BCS) are used increasingly for larger tumours. This large cohort study aimed to assess oncological outcomes after oncoplastic BCS (OPS) versus standard BCS. Methods Data for a…
