Adjuvant therapy in women with axillary node metastases from breast cancer is beneficial, but the role of adjuvant therapy in women with node-negative breast cancer is controversial. By definition, all clinically apparent disease can be removed surgically in patients with early breast cancer. Although the majority of patients with early breast cancer are cured with surgical therapy alone, about 30% of node-negative patients eventually will die of their disease. The identification of this subgroup of high-risk patients is imperative in order to decrease disease recurrence.
