Occult axillary lymph node metastases in “node-negative” breast carcinoma
IA Nasser, AKC Lee, S Bosari, R Saganich, G Heatley… - Human pathology, 1993 - Elsevier
The presence of occult axillary nodal metastases was evaluated in 159 patients with “node-
negative” invasive breast carcinoma. Multiple additional levels of the lymph nodes were
examined with hematoxylin-eosin staining and keratin immunostaining. Occult nodal
metastases were detected in 50 (31%) patients; of these, 28 (17%) were detectable by
hematoxylin-eosin stain alone, while the other 22 (14%) consisted of mostly single cells or
very small clusters and required immunostaining for detection. The size of the metastatic …
