Issues of regret in women with contralateral prophylactic mastectomiesL L Montgomery
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 6:546-52. 1999..We have developed a National Prophylactic Mastectomy Registry comprised of a volunteer population of 817 women from 43 states who have undergone prophylactic (unilateral or bilateral) mastectomy...- Isosulfan blue dye reactions during sentinel lymph node mapping for breast cancerLeslie L Montgomery
Breast Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA
Anesth Analg 95:385-8, table of contents. 2002..Bronchospasm and respiratory compromise are unusual, and most patients can be treated with short-term pressor support. Patients with a sulfa allergy do not display a cross-sensitivity to isosulfan blue dye... - Intradermal isotope injection: a highly accurate method of lymphatic mapping in breast carcinomaS K Boolbol
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 8:20-4. 2001..Further investigation is warranted before this technique is adopted for use in larger breast cancers. Intraoperative examination and biopsy of any suspicious nonsentinel nodes are critical... - Lymphovascular invasion enhances the prediction of non-sentinel node metastases in breast cancer patients with positive sentinel nodesM R Weiser
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 8:145-9. 2001..CONCLUSION: Patients with small breast cancers, no LVI, and SLN micrometastases have a low risk of non-SLN metastases, and may not require completion ALND... - Patient reluctance toward tamoxifen use for breast cancer primary preventionE R Port
Breast Service, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 8:580-5. 2001..CONCLUSIONS: In this study, the vast majority of patients at increased risk for breast cancer perceived that the risks of taking tamoxifen outweighed the benefits and declined to take it... - Intradermal isotope injection is superior to intramammary in sentinel node biopsy for breast cancerR C Martin
Breast Service, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA
Surgery 130:432-8. 2001..The dermal and parenchymal lymphatics of the breast drain to the same axillary SLN in most breast cancer patients, and ID isotope injection is the procedure of choice in this setting... - A prospective analysis of the effect of blue-dye volume on sentinel lymph node mapping success and incidence of allergic reaction in patients with breast cancerTari A King
Breast Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, New York, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 11:535-41. 2004..This study examined whether the volume of isosulfan blue dye used in sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in breast cancer is related to the SLN identification rate or to the incidence of allergic reactions... - Results of MRI screening for breast cancer in high-risk patients with LCIS and atypical hyperplasiaElisa Rush Port
Breast Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 14:1051-7. 2007..More data are needed to define the role of MRI screening for specific high-risk groups. We describe our experience with MRI screening in patients with atypical hyperplasia (AH) and lobular carcinoma in situ (LCIS)... - Reoperative sentinel lymph node biopsy: a new option for patients with primary or locally recurrent breast carcinomaElisa Rush Port
Breast Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, USA
J Am Coll Surg 195:167-72. 2002..Further study is required to better define the subset of patients in whom reoperative SLN biopsy can replace ALND... - The accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy in multicentric and multifocal invasive breast cancersEleni Tousimis
Breast Service, Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY, USA
J Am Coll Surg 197:529-35. 2003..Our retrospective data suggest SLNB may be used as a reliable alternative to conventional ALND in selected patients with MC or MF disease. Further studies in this patient population are warranted... - Unilateral postoperative chest wall radiotherapy in bilateral tissue expander/implant reconstruction patients: a prospective outcomes analysisColleen M McCarthy
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, New York, NY 10021, USA
Plast Reconstr Surg 116:1642-7. 2005..These data support the conclusion that immediate, bilateral breast reconstruction using tissue expansion and implants is an acceptable option for the subset of patients who may undergo unilateral, postexchange radiotherapy... - Sensory morbidity after sentinel lymph node biopsy and axillary dissection: a prospective study of 233 womenLarissa K F Temple
Department of Surgery, Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center, 1275 York Avenue, New York, NY 10021, USA
Ann Surg Oncol 9:654-62. 2002..Sensory morbidity improves in the first 3 months after surgery, but patients continue to report sensory morbidity at 1 year. Longitudinal follow-up is required to further assess lymphedema...
