TL;DR: Immediate completion lymph‐node dissection increased the rate of regional disease control and provided prognostic information but did not increase melanoma‐specific survival among patients with melanoma and sentinel‐node metastases.

TL;DR: This prospective study demonstrates accurate mutation detection in tumor tissues using ddPCR, and that ptDNA can be detected in blood before and after surgery in patients with early-stage breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI
Overexpression of the glucose-regulated stress gene GRP78 in malignant but not benign human breast lesions
Patricia M. Fernandez,Sana Tabbara,Lisa K. Jacobs,Frank C. R. Manning,Theodore N. Tsangaris,Arnold M. Schwartz,Katherine A. Kennedy,Steven R. Patierno +7 more
TL;DR: The results suggest that some breast tumors exhibit adverse microenvironment conditions that induce the overexpression of specific stress genes that may play a role in resistance to apoptosis and decreased chemotherapeutic efficacy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Positive Margins: The Challenge Continues for Breast Surgeons
TL;DR: The article “Predictors of Re-excision Among Women Undergoing Breast Conserving Surgery for Cancer” attempts to identify the factors that increase the risk of a positive margin, and investigates mechanisms that reduce the rate of positive margins.
