摘要
Axillary presentation from occult breast cancer is uncommon and continues to be a diagnostic and therapeutic challenge to physicians. Once the diagnosis of adenocarcinoma metastatic to an axillary lymph node has been confi rmed, a preoperative workup should be done. The current experience is based on several relatively small retrospective reviews and case reports. It is diffi cult to determine the best management of occult breast cancer. However, treatment of axillary lymph node dissection is recommended for local control and complete staging information. Treatment of breast should be a choice between breast conservation with whole-breast radiotherapy and mastectomy. Adjuvant systemic treatment should be offered.
