Breast Surgery
Major Changes in Surgical
Management-Breast
• Oncoplastic surgery-Partial resection of the
breast including areas involved by tumor(s)
and repackaging of the residual tissue into an
improved breast form
• Nipple sparing mastectomy-The removal of
essentially all breast tissue with preservation
of the entire skin envelope including the
nipple-areolar complex
Breast Conservation
• Validated in landmark trial NSABP B06
– Mastectomy not necessary in early T stage,
unifocal breast cancer (T1, T2).
– Nodal status does not dictate breast procedure
– Slightly higher in breast recurrence rates with
lumpectomy/XRT compared with mastectomy but
survival remains unaffected
In Breast Recurrence Patterns
• 93% of all ipsilateral inbreast recurrences after
BCT occurred within the
same quadrant
• 95% were histologically
the same or similar
tumors
* Average follow-up 103 mos.
Fisher ER, Anderson S, Redmond C, Fisher B. Ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence and survival following lumpectomy
and irradiation: pathological findings from NSABP protocol B-06 Semin Surg Oncol. 1992 May-Jun;8(3):161-6
Oncoplastic Surgery
• Allows you to push the envelope with
multifocal tumors and breast conservation
(multicentric also possible but remains
controversial)
• Improves cosmetic outcome
• Allows for wider margins in many cases*
• Improved sexual function of the breast
• Decrease surgical burden for pt when
mastectomy/reconstruction are avoided

Hallmarks of oncoplastic approach
1. Consider the skin a drape to mask underlying
work. Consider it separately from the
underlying gland. Undermining the skin is
always the first step.

Shhhhh, the #1 Secret in Breast
Surgery is……
It’s All About the Axilla
Axillary Surgery
Major Changes in Surgical
Management of the Axilla
• Less rigor is employed in clinical assessment of
axillary nodal status
• A single positive sentinel node no longer
triggers completion axillary dissection!
• Less complete axillary staging does not seem
to affect survival or locoregional recurrence as
best we now know.
• Stage migration over the long term is a
possibility

Lessons Learned
• Practice changing trial with new guidelines
rapidly accepted by multiple professional
societies
• Currently, for any patient undergoing primary
surgery in form of BCT, ALND is only standard
of care for 3 or more positive SLN
• Calls into question necessary extent of presurgical LN evaluation
AMAROS Trial
• Clinically node negative women with tumors up
to 5 cm in size (expanded from 3 cm)
• Essentially studied same group as ACOSOG Z0011
but key difference is that mastectomy patients
were included and that treatment arm included
dedicated axillary field radiation
• Groups were randomized to ALND or radiation
after positive SLN bx
• Patients were followed for OS, LRR and
lymphedema development
Straver M E et al. JCO 2010;28:731-737
Conclusions and Confusions
• Both ACOSOG Z0011 and AMAROS support the
avoidance of ALND in clinically node negative
women with small amount of pathologic nodal
involvement
• Axillary recurrence remains rare whether patients
receive axillary radiation (AMAROS) or not
(Z0011) pts. For whom then is axillary radiation
necessary?
– There may be a subset of patients who benefits, but
further study is needed
Axillary Management After
Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy
• Sentinel lymph node biopsy is now widely
accepted for pts who had a clinically node
negative axilla prior to starting chemotherapy
• Routine ALND is reserved for those with
positive SLN bx or clinically positive axilla
initially
• The downstaged axilla post-NCT is an area of
hot debate
ACOSOG 1071
• Accrued 756 patients with core-needle bx proven
axillary metastases who then underwent
neoadjuvant chemotherapy
• Post-chemotherapy, all patients were subjected
to SLN bx with mandatory completion axillary
dissection
• Goal of trial was to prove feasibility in identifying
SLN after chemotherapy and its accuracy in
predicting residual disease in the axilla
Results
• Overall 91.2% SLN bx correctly identified axillary status
• 40% of patients had a nodal pCR
• 12.6% overall false negative rate of SLN bx when 2 or
more SLNs were found (FN rate 31.5% if only 1 SLN
found)
• FN rate decreased 9.1% if 3 or more SLN ID
• FN rate further decreased to 10.8% if pathologist could
ID evidence of chemo effect in nodes regardless of
number harvested
• FN decreased to 7.4% if node was clipped at CNbx as
found in SLN specimen regardless of number of nodes;
14% FN if no clipping was done
Rates of ID SLN
• 88.9% rate of SLN ID with 1 tracer, but 93.8%
rate of ID when dual tracer was used
– 22.2% FN rate with blue dye alone
– 20% FN rate with technetium alone
– 10.8% FN rate with dual tracer
Authors’ Conclusion
• Trial set a goal of no more than 10% overall FN
rate, and though this was not achieved
(12.8%), it was in certain subsets and merits
further study

Authors’ Conclusions
• The Detection Rate (DR) for the SLN is excellent
for patients who receive SLNB prior to systemic
treatment
• Repeated SLNBx is associated with an
unacceptable DR Patients who convert under
NACT from cN1 to ycN0 have a DR of only 80.1 %
• The FNR for patients, who are downstaged
through NACT from a positive to a negative
axillary status appears less favourable compared
to the FNR in patients who undergo primary
surgery
Recommendations
• Pre-neoadjuvant SLN bx should be used only in
rare circumstances, and post-neoadjuvant SLN bx
should not be attempted
• Dual tracer should always be used
• ID of fewer than 2 LNs should be considered a
mapping failure and completion ALND performed
• Clip should be placed into nodes at bx if pt is
undergoing neoadjuvant chemo and should be
ID’ed in SLN. If not ID’ed, do we consider this a
mapping failure with need for cALND?

Radiation
Use of Radiation
• Well validated for use to treat the breast after
lumpectomy for locoregional control
• Well validated to improve locoregional control
when fields are expanded to cover nodal
basins with 4 or more nodes involved
• Extent of fields needed after 1-3 positive SLN
is controversial, especially after mastectomy
But in the node negative…
• Hughes data indicates diminishing return on
radiation after lumpectomy in older age
groups
• Newer data indicates that whole breast
radiation may not be necessary
• Intraoperative radiation therapy is becoming a
more viable option of those with early stage
breast cancer undergoing breast conservation
therapy
What is Intra-Operative Radiation
Therapy
• IORT is the delivery of a single dose of
targeted radiation to the lumpectomy bed at
the time of surgery
– 3 devices currently employed, 2 of which have
data from large, multi-center, randomized
controlled trials
– Treats 1 cm around the cavity
– Done in place of whole breast radiation in most
cases

Benefits of IORT…
• PATIENT CONVENIENCE
– All local treatment accomplished in OR vs.
multiple trips to radiation treatment center
and/or caring for external catheter
– Local skin effects are virtually none barring
technical error
– Enables us to offer breast conservation to patients
who might otherwise choose mastectomy
Benefits of IORT…
• COSMETIC BENEFIT
– Oncoplastic surgery possible after IORT unlike
other catheter-based APBI
– Little to no risk of capsular contracture with
existing implants
– Retain low-risk implant-based reconstruction
options in case of recurrence
– Decreased risk of breast asymmetry
In Conclusion…
• WBRT is still the gold standard, and we are still learning who
the best candidates for IORT may be
• OS is not affected by method of radiation and overall the IBRT,
though higher with IORT, is still relatively uncommon
• IORT confers many benefits that WBRT does not
• Patients must be highly selected with strong consideration for
treatment to be given on-protocol. Any patient undergoing
IORT should receive close follow up monitoring
• IORT should be done at the time of initial lumpectomy
• Further investigation is merited
