## Background: Axillary lymph node metastases (alnm) are the most important predictor of survival in patients with t1 breast carcinoma. due to a relatively low incidence of axillary metastasis in tumors < or = 2 cm, the role of axillary lymph node dissection for these patients has been questioned.
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Axillary lymph node involvement (ALNI) remains the most accurate predictive factor for recurrence risk and survival in patients with invasive breast carcinoma (IBC) and is an essential element in therapeutic decisions. However, axillary dissection (AD) is responsible for
