摘要

Axillary surgery for breast cancer has evolved significantly during the last three decades in terms of both indications and techniques. De-escalation is intended to lessen complications of therapy without having a negative impact on oncologic outcomes. At the Transatlantic Breast Cancer Collaborative (TBCC) meeting, it was concluded that due to the significant variation in the terminology and techniques used for axillary surgery, comparison across studies is challenging. This report describes this inconsistent terminology and subsequent challenges and proposes standardizing terminology to sentinel lymph node surgery.
