  1. Chair Harold Burstein, MD, PhD Faculty Jennifer Bellon, MD Mehra Golshan, MD Breast Cancer Tumor Board

  2. Patient Presentation • 55-year-old woman who works as a medical office administrator • Screening mammogram showed abnormality in breast • Core biopsy revealed invasive cancer with associated ductal carcinoma in situ • Invasive component considered intermediate grade • She underwent lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node mapping • Lumpectomy revealed a 1.7 cm, grade 2 (moderately differentiated) invasive ductal carcinoma

  3. Further Tumor Testing • Sentinel lymph node mapping • 2 lymph nodes identified • 1 node contained a 2-mm focus of invasive cancer seen on hematoxylin and eosin stain • Tumor immunophenotyping • Estrogen receptor positive • Progesterone receptor low positive • HER2 1+ • HER2 status determination by fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) • No evidence for gene amplification, with a ratio of 1.2

  4. Patient History and Exam • Patient is otherwise well • Borderline high cholesterol • Postmenopausal, grava 3 para 2 with a miscarriage • No medications • Medical allergy to sulfa products (rash) • No family history of breast cancer • Comprehensive system review notable only for her postoperative treatment changes

  11. Conclusions • ACOSOG Z0011 was a study of completion dissection or not for women with positive sentinel lymph nodes • There was no apparent benefit for completion dissection as both groups had very low risk of local and regional breast cancer recurrence • The trial closed having accrued only half its patients and remains somewhat underpowered • Moving forward, it is likely that surgical treatment decisions will be individualized • Role of axillary dissection to be based on tumor size, extent of nodal disease, biological features of the breast cancer, patient age, and other traditional risk factors
