摘要
From 1956 to 1976, 49 cases of metastases in axillary lymph nodes from an occult carcinoma of the breast were selected. Forty-four patients underwent removal of the suspicious breast. In 11 patients no tumor was found at the pathologic examination. The survival of these patients was no different from the survival of those in whom the tumor was found. The 5-year survival of the total series was 87%, confirming that this type of presentation of breast cancer has a prognosis that is better than generally reported for stage II carcinoma of the breast.
