Overview
The axillary management of breast cancer patients with operable isolated chest wall recurrence after mastectomy is unclear. We aim to determine if axillary restaging surgery can be safely omitted with no increased recurrences in this group of patients.
Eligibility

isolated chest wall recurrence.
