Carcinoma metastatic to cervical lymph nodes from an occult primary tumor: the outcome after combined-modality therapy.

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Evidence from the American College of Surgeons Oncology Group (ACOSOG) Z0011 trial suggests completion axillary lymph node dissection (cALND) after positive sentinel lymph node biopsy (+SLNB) does not improve outcomes in select patients, leading to practice variation. A multidisciplinary group of surgeons,...
