Summary

Breast cancer patients with ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node metastasis are defined as Ⅲc stage (N3) according to the newly published 8th AJCC TNM staging system. No concret guide line was supported to such patients. It is still pending whether to exert supraclavicular lymph node dissection to breast cancer patients with ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node metastasis.

To evaluate the clinical significance and complication of supraclavicular lymph node dissection for breast cancer patients with ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node metastasis, the investigators randomize patients into two groups, one group is supraclavicular lymph node dissection with radiotherapy group, the other group is radiotherapy group.

Conditions

  • Breast Cancer Stage III

Interventions

PROCEDURE

supraclavicular lymph node dissection

people with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis before surgery should receive dissection of supraclavicular lymph node and the supraclavicular lymph node metastasis should be confirmed either by core needle biopsy or fine needle aspiration biopsy

RADIATION

supraclavicular area radiotherapy

people with supraclavicular lymph node metastasis before surgery should receive radiotherapy of supraclavicular area and the supraclavicular lymph node metastasis should be confirmed either by core needle biopsy or fine needle aspiration biopsy
