| Popis: | Background: Recently, it is a hot topic that the estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR) and human epidermal growth factor receptor type 2 (HER2) may differ between the primary tumors and the paired recurrent metastatic tumors. On the other hand, the concordance of the ER, PR, and HER2 status between the primary tumor and ipsilateral axillary lymph node metastases is reported to be high in previous study. However, in these reports, the majority of lymph nodes metastases examined are macrometastases obtained from axillary lymph node dissection. The aim of the present study is to compare the ER, PR, and HER2 status of the primary breast tumors with that of sentinel lymph node micrometastases and macrometastases. Methods: A total of 770 breast cancer patients underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy between 2006 and 2010 at our hospital. Among them, 87 patients who had only one node positive were eligible for our study. ER, PR, and HER2 status were determined by immunohistochemistry (IHC) and/or FISH. Result: We analyzed 76 patients with 50(66%) patients with macrometastasesn and 26 (34%) micrometastases, except 11 cases those were indeterminate for IHC. ER status of primary tumor and the paired metastatic lymph node were almost full concordance except one case, in which ER was negative in primary tumor but ER was positive in lymph node. Discordance for PR was 15.8% (n = 12). Among these, six patients had PR-positive on primary and PR-negative in lymph node while six patients had PR-negative in primary and PR-positive in lymph node. Discordance for HER2 between primary tumor and metastatic lymph node was 5.3% (n = 4). Among these, three had negative in primaries and positive in lymph nodes while one had positive in primary and negative in lymph node. A discordance between primary and lymph node in HER2, ER, or PR status was observed in 14 of 67 (18.4%) cases. Conclusions: The concordance in HER2, ER, and PR was high between the primary tumor and sentinel lymph nodes. However some cases had discordance of receptor status and these result may cause of discordance for distant metastases or poor prognosis.
