To analyze the impact on prognosis of the number of axillary lymph node metastases (LNM) detected by ultrasound (US) in patients with breast cancer.
One-to-one comparison of LNM was performed between the ultrasound and histologic diagnosis in 380 patients.
The accuracy of preoperative ultrasound diagnosis was 79.7%. According to the subdivision of number of LNM (0, 1-3, 4-9, 10+), the accuracy rates associated with LNM were 82%, 49%, 34%, and 86%, respectively. The disease-free-survival curves according to the number of LNM were similar in them.
Preoperative ultrasound can determine axillary involvement and may be useful for predicting prognosis.
分析超声（US）检测乳腺癌患者腋窝淋巴结转移（LNM）数量对预后的影响。
对 380 例患者的超声与组织学诊断的 LNM 进行一对一比较。
术前超声诊断的准确率为 79.7%。根据 LNM 数量的细分（0、1-3、4-9、10+），与 LNM 相关的准确率分别为 82%、49%、34%和 86%。根据 LNM 数量绘制的无病生存曲线在各组之间相似。
术前超声可以确定腋窝受累情况，可能有助于预测预后。
