Arteries carry blood (including fluid) away from the heart to all organs in the body, while the veins and lymphatics bring\u00a0 fluid back to the heart.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The lymphatic system also plays another important role, providing an immune defense against foreign bodies, like bacteria and viruses, and abnormal cells such as cancer. It has special checkpoints all over the lymphatic system, known as lymph nodes, which act as the main bodyguard and filtration system for all foreign bodies.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Breast cancer usually spreads in an organised manner. It commonly starts to spread through the lymphatic system to the lymph nodes in the armpit (axilla) area before spreading to other organs<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\n<h2>The Role of Lymph Node Surgery in Breast Cancer<\/h2>\n<ol style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_708\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-708\" style=\"width: 271px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-708\" src=\"https:\/\/thebreastclinic.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/The-Role-of-Lymph-Node-Surgery-in-Breast-Cancer.jpg\" alt=\"The Role of Lymph Node Surgery in Breast Cancer\" width=\"271\" height=\"197\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-708\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Location of the axillary lymph nodes<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>i. Who is it for?<\/strong><br \/>\nAs breast cancer will first spread to the axillary lymph nodes, these lymph nodes will need to be sampled, and sometimes completely removed for breast cancer staging and cancer control. Thus, all patients who have invasive breast cancer will need the axillary lymph nodes to be sampled, and sometimes completely removed. Patients who have the precursor to invasive cancer i.e. <a href=\"#dcis\">DCIS<\/a>, do not need any axillary lymph node sampling.<\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\"><strong>ii. Reducing the complications from lymph node surgery<\/strong><br \/>\nIn the past, patients who had their axillary lymph nodes removed sometimes had a complication called lymphoedema, which occurs in 20% of the patients. This is where the arm swells up, sometimes permanently.<br \/>\nHowever, medical and surgical advancements have helped refine the axillary lymph node surgery procedure to prevent lymphoedema. <strong>Nowadays, just a few selected special lymph nodes (known as sentinel nodes) are initially removed during surgery. Only if these sentinel nodes have cancer in them, will all the axillary lymph nodes need to be removed.<\/strong><\/li>\n<li style=\"margin-bottom: 20px;\">\n<figure id=\"attachment_709\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-709\" style=\"width: 289px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\" wp-image-709\" src=\"https:\/\/thebreastclinic.sg\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/Understanding-Sentinel-Node-Biopsy.jpg\" alt=\"Understanding Sentinel Node Biopsy\" width=\"289\" height=\"190\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-709\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Sentinel Node (dyed blue)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p><strong>iii. Understanding Sentinel Node Biopsy<\/strong><br \/>\nTo find these sentinel lymph nodes, the breast surgeon injects a blue dye and sometimes a radiocolloid just before surgery. Once identified, these sentinel nodes are sent for immediate testing(frozen section).If there is no cancer in these lymph nodes, the other lymph nodes do not need to be removed. If the sentinel nodes have cancer in them, then there is no option but to remove all the lymph nodes in the axilla.As blue dye is injected, the patient may look a bit blue, for a couple of days. Also, as the blue dye is removed through the kidneys, the patient\u2019s urine may seem a bit green for a few days. This is completely normal and is no cause for alarm.<\/li>\n<li><strong>iv. Significance of Positive Lymph Nodes<\/strong><br \/>\nIf the lymph nodes removed during surgery are positive(have cancer in them), it usually means that the stage of the cancer is more advanced than if the lymph nodes were negative. Thus, it usually also means that there will be a need for radiotherapy and chemotherapy in addition to surgery.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Breast cancer is the most common cancer amongst women all over the world.
