A National Survey of Breast Surgeons and Radiation Oncologists on Contemporary Axillary Management in Mastectomy Patients.

There is significant heterogeneity in the management of the axilla in mastectomy patients with pathologically positive SLNs, both between and among surgeons and radiation oncologists. Efforts should be made to assist both groups in identifying de-escalation opportunities to ensure that mastectomy patients with positive SLNs are treated appropriately.
