Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Breast cancer and Axillary Adenopathy
Women with breast cancer with abnormal appearing ipsilateral axillary nodes undergoing fine needle aspiration and core biopsy of a lymph node.
Fine needle aspiration and core biopsy of lymph node
Ultrasound guided fine needle aspiration of an abnormal lymph node followed by ultrasound guided core biopsy of the same node followed by clip placement into the node.
Axillary surgery
Patients underwent axillary node dissection or excision of setinel axillary nodes at the time of surgical treatment of their breast cancer.
Titanium marker
A titanium marker was deposited into the lymph node that was percutaneously biopsied , immediately after the last tissue sample obtained.
