First seen May 13, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study looks at whether women over 59 with a specific low-risk type of early breast cancer (luminal A) can safely skip sentinel lymph node biopsy, a standard surgical procedure to check if cancer has spread. The goal is to see if skipping this step leads to more cancer coming back in the armpit area. About 100 participants will be followed and compared to those who received the standard biopsy.
