Predicting Non‐sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis in a Chinese Breast Cancer Population with 1–2 Positive Sentinel Nodes: Development and Assessment of a New Predictive Nomogram

Abstract: The SCC-NSLN nomogram could serve as an acceptable clinical tool in clinical discussions with patients. The omission of ALND might be possible if the probability of non-SLN involvement is <10 and <15 % in accordance with the acceptable risk determined by medical staff and patients.

“…Series agree in terms of tumor size, histological grade, lymphovascular invasion, number of SLN resected, macrometastatic nodal disease, and extracapsular extension as predictive factors [6,7,8,9,10,11,12]. Furthermore, some of these analyses have proposed and developed the use of nomograms to estimate the risk of metastatic disease in axillary nodes in order to define if ALND is needed [24,25]. …”

“…Thus, these values are unclear prior to surgery. Two publications considered the numbers of positive and negative SLNs as the independent risk factors included in their prediction models [26,27]. The SLN metastasis ratio was incorporated into the model predictions in another clinical study [28].…”
