Factors Associated with Receipt of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Sentinel lymph mode biopsy (SLNB) is less invasive than axillary lymph node dissection and has fewer adverse effects. Chen et al. (p. 462) assessed the demographic, clinical, and facility-related factors associated with receipt of SLNB in patients with early-stage breast cancer, and they also assessed trends in these factors over time. They found that, among the study population of 490,899 women, the use of SLNB increased from 26.8% in 1998 to 65.5% in 2005. Factors associated with a lower likelihood of receiving SLNB included being older, being a member of a racial/ethnic minority, or having . . . [Full Text of this Article]
