Stratégies en cas de positivité du ganglion sentinelle dans les cancers du sein
Resume Les strategies de prise en charge en cas de ganglion(s) sentinelle(s) micro ou macrometastatique(s) dans les cancers du sein ont ete profondement modifiees depuis une dizaine d’annees et la publication de cinq essais randomises : ACOSOG Z0011, IBCSG 23-01, et AATRM comparant curage axillaire versus abstention ; et AMAROS et OTOASOR comparant curage axillaire versus radiotherapie axillaire. Malgre les limites methodologiques de certains de ces essais, notamment de l’ACOSOG Z0011, les recommandations internationales (ASCO, NCCN) et le consensus d’experts de St Gallen ne preconisent pas la realisation d’un curage axillaire complementaire en cas d’envahissement macro ou micrometastatique…
Prognostic factors of overall survival for patients with FIGO stage IIIc or IVa ovarian cancer treated with neo-adjuvant chemotherapy followed by interval debulking surgery: A multicenter cohort analysis from the FRANCOGYN study group
International audience; Introduction The aim of this study was to identify prognostic factors of overall survival in patients with FIGO stage IIIc or IVa ovarian cancer (OC) treated by neo-adjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by interval debulking surgery.Materials and methods Data from 483 patients with ovarian cancer were retrospectively collected, from January 1, 2000 to December 31, 2016, from the FRANCOGYN database, regrouping data from 11 centers specialized in ovarian cancer treatment. Median overall survival was determined using the Kaplan-Meier method. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed to define prognostic factors of overall survival.Results The median overall sur…
Omitting axillary lymph node dissection after positive sentinel lymph node in the post-Z0011 era: Compliance with NCCN and ASCO clinical guidelines and Z0011 criteria in a large prospective cohort
Summary Purpose In the ACOSOG Z0011 trial, patients with primary breast cancer and 1–2 tumor-involved sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) undergoing breast-conserving surgery had no oncological outcome benefit after axillary lymph node dissection (ALND), despite a relevant rate of non-SLN metastases of 27%. According to the St Gallen expert consensus, and NCCN and ASCO clinical guidelines, ALND may be avoided in patients who meet all ACOSOG Z0011 inclusion criteria. This recommendation can also be extended to patients undergoing mastectomy, with 1 or 2 positive SLNs and an indication for chest wall radiation, in whom axillary radiotherapy can be proposed as an alternative to completion ALND. The ai…
