Omitting completion axillary lymph node dissection does not increase risk for death for patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer, but it does significantly improve arm distress.Data from ...

The largest randomized trial of its kind to date found noninferior survival and better arm morbidity among patients with breast cancer who did not undergo completion axillary lymph node dissection.

Five-year OS was 94.4% with ALND omission vs 93.4% with completion ALND (HR 0.89), confirming non-inferiority; breast cancer–specific survival was similarly high in both arms. Inclusion of mastectomy ...

Lucknow: Doctors at a city hospital performed scarless robotic surgery on a 35-year-old tonsil cancer patient, who recovered within four days. The tumour was removed through the mouth without external ...

In a new study published in JAMA, the diagnostic yield of transbronchial lung biopsy was significantly higher when using a cryoprobe versus forceps in a group of patients with pulmonary nodules or ...

SENOMAC at ASCO 2026 shows skipping completion ALND in select breast cancer keeps survival high and cuts lymphedema, boosting ...

Melanoma is the third most common cancer in Australia, and there are as many victims in their 20s and 30s as later in life. While prospects for those with advanced melanoma are grim compared with many ...

Many people with breast cancer can safely avoid chemotherapy with the use of a gene test, potentially sparing them unnecessary side effects without increasing the risk of the cancer returning, a large ...

A woman was experiencing a common symptom of colon cancer for years, but doctors dismissed it as pregnancy-related. She was diagnosed with stage 3c.

Scientists developed a DNA or gene test that can differentiate between patients who are likely to benefit from the treatment and those who are not, a clinical trial has shown.

A new DNA-based test could spare millions of breast cancer patients worldwide from undergoing chemotherapy, according to findings from a major international study that researchers say could transform ...
