Abstract | Background: Few studies have focused on the optimal threshold of examed lymph nodes (ELNs) for breast cancer patients with more than three positive lymph nodes after modified radical mastectomy. Materials and methods: The X-tile and the minimum Results: The results showed that 12 ELNs was the optimal threshold for these patients, and the patients with >12 ELNs had a better cancer-specific survival benefit compared with the patients with <12 ELNs ( Conclusion: The number 12 can be selected as the optimal threshold of ELNs for breast cancer patients with >3 positive lymph nodes after modified radical mastectomy. |
