RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: To offer an extensive retrospective experience on the management of male breast cancer. METHODS: A multicenter retrospective observational cohort study was conducted, including male patients diagnosed with breast cancer (invasive or in situ) in 12 Italian breast units from January 1975 to December 2019. Patients aged 18 years or older were assessed for eligibility. Exclusion criteria were metastatic cancer at diagnosis, previous cancer(s), received neoadjuvant treatment, incomplete data on (neo) adjuvant treatment(s), and/or follow-up data. Data on radiological examinations, demographic characteristics, risk factors, histological features, receptor status, treatments, and follow-up were collected. RESULTS: In a series of 671 male patients with breast cancer assessed for eligibility, 403 (28 in situ and 375 invasive neoplasms) were included in the study. All included patients underwent surgery. The median age at surgery was 63.8 years (IQR 56.1-72.1). In 68% of cases, patients underwent echography, and in 55.1%, a mammography. Most patients were ER and PR positive (63.8%), HER2 negative (80.4%), with high (≥ 20%) Ki67 values (61.3%), and luminal B subtype (51.1%). The 10-year overall survival was 73.6% (95% CI 67.0-79.1) for invasive breast cancer and 90% (95% CI 65.6-97.4) for in situ breast cancer. In patients with invasive breast cancer, at univariable analysis, having a G3 tumor (vs. G1), pT2/3/4 (vs. pT1), pN2/3 (vs. pN0), luminal B subtype with Ki67 ≥ 20% (vs. Luminal A), were significantly associated with a higher risk of death. In multivariable analyses, pT2/3/4 (vs. pT1) remained significantly associated with a higher risk of death (HR 3.14, 95% CI 1.83-5.39), and having a HER2 positive or a triple-negative subtype (vs. Luminal A) was also significantly associated with a higher risk of mortality (HR 4.76, 95% CI 1.26-18.1). CONCLUSION: Male breast cancer is a rare disease, the better understanding of which is necessary for a more effective diagnostic and therapeutic approach.

RESUMO

Importance: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is the standard of care for axillary node staging of patients with early breast cancer (BC), but its necessity can be questioned since surgery for examination of axillary nodes is not performed with curative intent. Objective: To determine whether the omission of axillary surgery is noninferior to SLNB in patients with small BC and a negative result on preoperative axillary lymph node ultrasonography. Design, Setting, and Participants: The SOUND (Sentinel Node vs Observation After Axillary Ultra-Sound) trial was a prospective noninferiority phase 3 randomized clinical trial conducted in Italy, Switzerland, Spain, and Chile. A total of 1463 women of any age with BC up to 2 cm and a negative preoperative axillary ultrasonography result were enrolled and randomized between February 6, 2012, and June 30, 2017. Of those, 1405 were included in the intention-to-treat analysis. Data were analyzed from October 10, 2022, to January 13, 2023. Intervention: Eligible patients were randomized on a 1:1 ratio to receive SLNB (SLNB group) or no axillary surgery (no axillary surgery group). Main Outcomes and Measures: The primary end point of the study was distant disease-free survival (DDFS) at 5 years, analyzed as intention to treat. Secondary end points were the cumulative incidence of distant recurrences, the cumulative incidence of axillary recurrences, DFS, overall survival (OS), and the adjuvant treatment recommendations. Results: Among 1405 women (median [IQR] age, 60 [52-68] years) included in the intention-to-treat analysis, 708 were randomized to the SLNB group, and 697 were randomized to the no axillary surgery group. Overall, the median (IQR) tumor size was 1.1 (0.8-1.5) cm, and 1234 patients (87.8%) had estrogen receptor-positive ERBB2 (formerly HER2 or HER2/neu), nonoverexpressing BC. In the SLNB group, 97 patients (13.7%) had positive axillary nodes. The median (IQR) follow-up for disease assessment was 5.7 (5.0-6.8) years in the SLNB group and 5.7 (5.0-6.6) years in the no axillary surgery group. Five-year distant DDFS was 97.7% in the SLNB group and 98.0% in the no axillary surgery group (log-rank P = .67; hazard ratio, 0.84; 90% CI, 0.45-1.54; noninferiority P = .02). A total of 12 (1.7%) locoregional relapses, 13 (1.8%) distant metastases, and 21 (3.0%) deaths were observed in the SLNB group, and 11 (1.6%) locoregional relapses, 14 (2.0%) distant metastases, and 18 (2.6%) deaths were observed in the no axillary surgery group. Conclusions and Relevance: In this randomized clinical trial, omission of axillary surgery was noninferior to SLNB in patients with small BC and a negative result on ultrasonography of the axillary lymph nodes. These results suggest that patients with these features can be safely spared any axillary surgery whenever the lack of pathological information does not affect the postoperative treatment plan.

RESUMO

The outbreak of the SARS-COVID-2 pandemic (COVID-19) had a significant effect on the organisation of healthcare systems. Surgical units saw a significant reduction in the volume of surgical procedures performed, with lengthening waiting lists as a consequence. We assessed the surgical activity in relation to breast cancer that took place at the University Hospital of Cagliari, Italy, from February 2018 to March 2022. Two phases were identified based on the epidemiological circumstances: Phase 1-February 2018 to February 2020; Phase 2-March 2020 to March 2022. The surgery performed in the two phases was then compared. All the patients in our sample underwent a breast surgical procedure involving a lymph node biopsy using OSNA associated with the ACOSOG Z0011 criteria. In the study period overall at our facility, there were 4214 procedures, 417 of which involved breast surgery. In Phase 2, 91 procedures were performed using the OSNA method and ACOSOG Z0011 criteria, enabling the intraoperative staging of axillary nodes. Axillary treatment in breast cancer using this approach resulted in a significant reduction in the number of reoperations for the radicalisation of metastatic sentinel lymph nodes.
