I10-R327-article-278982024-08-27T18:27:48Z Conservative management of the axillary nodes in operable breast cancer Manejo conservador de la axila en cáncer de mama operable Ferreyra, Héctor D Goldsman, Marcos G . Over the years, the treatment of breast cancer has changed dramatically. We briefly describe those changes and also the different therapeutic approches to the axillary nodes. Over the last century, the primary goal was to avoid radical surgery of the breast. However, during the last decades, the interest was mainly focused on the possibility of treating the axila jo a conservative way, in an effort to minimize the adverse effects of linfadenectomy. The sentinel node technique is of key importance, because nowadays it is possible to diagnose breast cancer at early stages when most of the times the axila is negative. The early diagnoses of breast cancer makes the sentinel node technique a relevant tool at the time of making therapeutic decisions. Wc believe that the sentinel node technique could predict in many cases the lymph node status without the need of a complete axillary dissection of the axila in patients with breast cancer. El tratamiento del cáncer de mama (CM), tumor mas frecuente en la mujer, sufrió diferentes modificaciones a lo largo de los dos últimos siglos. Se describe una reseña de las mismas, como así también los cambios en el manejo de la terapéutica axilar. Durante el siglo pasado, se trabajó fundamentalmente en las opciones terapéuticas para la conservación de la glándula mamaria. Recién en las ultimas décadas comienza el planteo de conductas dirigidas al manejo conservador de la axila, sobre todo para minimizar los efectos adversos secundarios a la linfadcnectomía axilar completa. La técnica del Ganglio Centinela cobra importancia ya que los canceres de mama cada vez con mayor frecuencia, son diagnosticados en estadios iniciales, por lo que las probabilidades de tener ganglios axilares negativos son cada vez mayores. Concluimos que la información que brinda el conocimiento del estado de los ganglios axilares es muy importante en la toma de decisiones terapéuticas en pacientes con cáncer de mama, y que la técnica del ganglio centinela podría, en algunos casos, ser un test que predice el status ganglionar axilar, sin necesidad de realizar una linfadenectomía axilar clásica.
