👉Prophylactic mastectomy rates are rapidly rising in the United States.
👉Prophylactic mastectomy may be associated with a 3.5 to 5% occurrence of occult carcinoma depending on the indication for the operation.
👉 SLNB at the time of prophylactic mastectomy may eliminate the need for axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) if occult disease is identified.
👉A recent meta-analysis reviewed 14 studies where SLNB was routinely performed for prophylactic mastectomy in patients undergoing bilateral mastectomy for unilateral cancer.
👉This study found metastatic disease in the SLNB of the prophylactic mastectomy in 0% to 4% of patients with contralateral cancer.
👉The majority of metastatic disease was associated with contralateral axillary tumor spread from the primary tumor, not an occult primary tumor.
👉In patients who were found to have occult malignancy in the prophylactic mastectomy breast, less than 1% of sentinel lymph nodes were positive for metastatic disease.
👉Given the low rates of occult malignancy and axillary metastasis, SLNB is not indicated for patients undergoing prophylactic mastectomy.
