ABSTRACT
Introduction. The indication and extent of axillarylymph node dissection in breast cancer remainsopen to controversy.Materials and method. In this context, a 20-yearsurvival study has been made of 1600 breast cancerpatients subjected during surgical treatment to systematicdissection of the acromiothoracic vascularpedicle together with the accompanying lymphnodes (Rotter and Grossman interpectoral lymphnode groups). An anatomical study of these nodeswas also conducted in 100 necropsies, with the evaluationof 200 acromiothoracic vascular pedicles.Results. The interpectoral lymph nodes were anatomicallypresent in 42% of the necropsies and in35.1% of the patients subjected to surgery. The prognosiswas much worse in cases of neoplastic infiltrationof the interpectoral lymph nodes (Kaplan-Meier survival study), regardless of the influence ofother prognostic factors.Conclusions. In view of the results obtained, thedesignation of grade N3 of the TNM classification isproposed for malignancies with positive interpectorallymph node infiltration
