Typically, the sentinel nodes are axillary nodes. If you are having the axillary nodes removed, the sentinal nodes will also be removed.

If a women had a mastectomy that included the removal of axillary lymph nodes on her left side What can she expect regarding her left arm and why?

After a mastectomy with axillary lymph node removal on the left side, a woman may experience lymphedema in her left arm, which is swelling due to fluid buildup. This can occur because the lymph nodes that helped drain fluid from the arm have been removed. She may also have limited range of motion and increased risk of infection in that arm. Physical therapy and precautions to prevent injury or infection can help manage these issues.

Mastectomy - series?

Normal anatomyBreast cancer begins in the breast and spreads first to the lymph nodes of the armpit (axilla). When a breast lump is found to contain cancer, and if the cancer has not spread beyond the nodes of the axilla to distant sites, it is often removed surgically. Radiation therapy may be used in addition to surgery. In certain cases of malignant lumps, lumpectomy followed by radiation therapy is as effective as a radical mastectomy. Typically, lumpectomy does not require a breast replacement (prosthesis).Procedure 1In many cases of breast cancer, removal of the entire breast is unnecessary. A procedure such as a segmental mastectomy can be performed. In segmental mastectomy, the cancer and a larger area of normal breast tissue around it are removed. Lymph nodes under the arm and the lining over the chest muscles below the tumor also may be removed.Procedure 2In some cases, the cancer is too large to be removed by lumpectomy. In these situations, removal of the breast along with the lymph nodes in the armpit (axilla) that drain the breast, is required. This procedure is called modified radical mastectomy (MRM). The results of mastectomy for breast cancer depend on the stage of the cancer, the tumor size, and whether there is cancer in the lymph nodes.Chemotherapy is often administered after surgery for patients with cancer involving the lymph nodes.Reviewed ByReview Date: 12/15/2011Yi-Bin Chen, MD, Leukemia/Bone Marrow Transplant Program, Massachusetts General Hospital.
