Journal ArticleDOI

Preoperative MRI and surgical management in patients with nonpalpable breast cancer: the MONET - randomised controlled trial.

TL;DR: Addition of MRI to routine clinical care in patients with nonpalpable breast cancer was paradoxically associated with an increased re-excision rate, and breast MRI should not be used routinely for preoperative work-up of patients withNonpalpables breast cancer.
Journal ArticleDOI

Clinically node negative breast cancer patients undergoing breast conserving therapy, sentinel lymph node procedure versus follow-up: a Dutch randomized controlled multicentre trial (BOOG 2013-08)

TL;DR: If the sentinel lymph node biopsy can be safely omitted in clinically node negative breast cancer patients undergoing breast conserving therapy, this study will cost-effectively lead to a decreased axillary morbidity rate and thereby improved quality of life with non-inferior regional control, distant-disease free survival and overall survival.
Journal ArticleDOI

Prognostic value of micrometastases in sentinel lymph nodes of patients with breast carcinoma: a cohort study

TL;DR: Micrometastatic lymph node involvement in itself should not be an indication for adjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients, and no statistically significant differences were observed in overall or disease-free survival between (p)N(0) and (p(1micro).
Journal ArticleDOI

Local recurrence after surgery for primary extra‐abdominal desmoid‐type fibromatosis

TL;DR: Although there is a trend towards conservative treatment, surgery remains the standard treatment for extra‐abdominal desmoid tumours.
Journal ArticleDOI

Intraoperative ultrasound guidance for excision of non-palpable invasive breast cancer: a hospital-based series and an overview of the literature

TL;DR: For localization of non-palpable breast cancer, IOUS is a reliable alternative to GWL, as it achieves similar results in terms of complete tumor removal, re-excision rate and excised volume.
