TL;DR: The long-term survival rate among women who undergo breast-conserving surgery is the same as that among women Who undergo radical mastectomy, and Breast-conserve surgery is therefore the treatment of choice for women with relatively small breast cancers.

TL;DR: Sentinel-node biopsy is a safe and accurate method of screening the axillary nodes for metastasis in women with a small breast cancer.

TL;DR: From these results, mastectomy appears to involve unnecessary mutilation in patients with breast cancer of less than 2 cm and no palpable axillary lymph nodes.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Sentinel lymph node biopsy using a gamma ray-detecting probe allows staging of the axilla with high accuracy in patients with primary breast cancer and is necessary to determine whether axillary dissection may be avoided in those patients with an uninvolved sentinel lymph nodes.
