 | | The pathological response was correlated to the clinical and sonographic assessment. | | | The present study confirmed that ultrasonography of axilla is better than clinical examination in the assessment of axillary nodes and their response to neoadjuvant chemotherapy. | | | In our study, considering pathological assessment of the axilla as the gold standard, ultrasonography was found to be more sensitive than clinical examination for assessment of axillary nodal response (sensitivity 100% vs. 64%; specificity 86% vs. 86% respectively). |

| | The veteran exhibited slight limitation of motion of the right shoulder joint: measurement in active range of motion was 0 to 170 degrees in forward flexion; 0 to 160 degrees in abduction movement; 0 to 90 degrees in internal and external movement, with some discomfort in full elevation of the joint. | | | The wide excision encompassed previously undissected tissue down to the level of the latissimus dorsi, the subscapularis muscle, and the serratus muscle of the chest wall. | | | Upon examination, the examiner found no clinical evidence of recurrence of a high grade liposarcoma of the right axilla and no nodes were palpable. |

| | Post Breast Therapy Pain Syndrome (PBTPS) |
| | It is defined as typical neuropathic pain and associated symptoms (numbness, dysesthesia, edema, allodynia) located in the chest wall, axilla, arm, or shoulder of the surgical side, and persists beyond the typical 3 month healing period. | | | They were monitored for post surgical pain Three months later, they were asked if they had pain in the chest wall, axilla and/or medial upper arm, decreased sensation, if they required analgesics at home, and the intensity of their pain. | | | Minimizing invasive procedures: using SLNB vs. CAD results in decreased injury to intercostobrachial and sensory nerves to the chest wall and axilla, and lumpectomy plus radiation were shown to be equally effective in preventing local recurrence while maximizing survival, as a mastectomy. |

| | The axilla is a pyramidal space, situated between the upper lateral part of the chest and the medial side of the arm. | | | There are some important nerves, however, in this situation, viz., the long thoracic nerve, descending on the surface of the Serratus anterior, to which it is distributed; and the intercostobrachial nerve, perforating the upper and anterior part of this wall, and passing across the axilla to the medial side of the arm. | | | At the forepart of the axilla, in contact with the Pectorales, are the thoracic branches of the axillary artery, and along the lower margin of the Pectoralis minor the lateral thoracic artery extends to the side of the chest. |
