Popis: | Background. Metastatic involvement of the internal mammary chain lymph nodes (IMN) is associated with poor prognosis for breast cancer (BC) patients. However, parasternal radiation therapy is still a subject for debate. Methods. Results of 1144 consecutively treated patients with primary BC, who underwent one-stage videothoracoscopic (VATS) parasternal lymphadenectomy from 1998 to 2009, were retrospectively studied. Results. Surgical complications associated with thoracoscopic procedure did not exceed 2%. IMN metastases were detected in 211 (18.4%) patients, 6.0% of these cases did not have axillary invasion. In a wide analysis, the frequency of metastasis was statistically more influenced by: tumor localization (different from external quadrants), primary tumor size (T), level of involved axillary lymph nodes (N) and lymphovascular invasion. Patients with IMN metastases showed significantly poorer long-term outcomes: 5-year overall - OS and disease-free survival - DFS (OS 79.0±3.1% vs 91.4±1.0%, p |
