Washington, February 9 (Xinhua) ' Reporter Ren HaiJun) The research report that American researchers announced a few days ago reveals, the early breast cancer patient needn't accept the axillary lymph node excised the skill, because the operation can not improve survival rate bring pain, increase the intersection of complication and risk. The researchers of the centre of hygiene of California St.Johns of U.S.A. say on " magazine of American medical association ", they have analyzed 891 cancer cells have already been spread to the materials of the early breast cancer patient of the neighbouring lymph node, these patients' tumour has already been excised, and accepted radiotherapy and chemotherapy, but some patients among them have only accepted subsequently outpost's lymph node excises the skill, the axillary lymph node that and another part of patient has accepted the range is wider excises the skill. The lymph node protects body against the important tissue that disease is attacked. On clinic, it is known as outpost's lymph node that mammary gland malignant tumour shifts the obligatory first lymph node. Researchers find, patient who accepts two kinds of operations does not have survival rate of tumour, overall survival rate does not have obvious difference in 5. Researchers think, the axillary lymph node will bring the complication risk to excise, such as infecting, chronic swelling of arm,etc., and radiotherapy and chemotherapy can eliminate it before the cancer cell is shifted to the other positions in fact, excise the axillary lymph node to the early breast cancer patient and unnecessary. Researchers say, patient treats, removes the axillary lymph node and excises the skill in the procedure breast cancer in early days, will reduce the complication risk on condition that influence survival rate, thus improve curative effect. Breast cancer is the second leading cause of the death of American women's following lung cancer. Nearly 1,300,000 people are diagnosed and suffered from breast cancer every year in the whole world, nearly 500,000 people die of breast cancer.
