Popis: PURPOSE Sentinel lymph node biopsy is routinely used in breast cancer patients with clinically negative axillary lymph nodes. Locoregional relapses after negative sentinel lymph node biopsy are infrequent, occurring in up to 3% of patients. METHODS Six thousand and eight patients underwent breast cancer surgery in our center between 2006 and 2015. We analyzed 1466 patients with negative sentinel lymph node biopsy and no prior systemic treatment. Mastectomy without irradiation was used in 25.4% of these patients and breast-conserving surgery with adjuvant radiotherapy in 74.6%. Forty-seven (3.21%) locoregional relapses were identified within a median of 51 months (10-138 months). The molecular type was analyzed as a risk factor for locoregional relapses and distant metastases. The locoregional relapse location was then analyzed as a risk factor for distant metastases. RESULTS Triple-negative breast cancer (P = .003), age
