A Competing Risk Analysis Model to Determine the Prognostic Value of Isolated Tumor Cells in Axillary Lymph Nodes for T1N0M0 Breast Cancer Patients Based on the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Database

IntroductionKnowledge of the association between isolated tumor cells (ITCs) in breast cancer patients and the outcome is very limited. We aimed to determine the prognostic value of axillary lymph node ITCs for T1N0M0 female breast cancer (FBC) patients.MethodsData for T1N0M0 FBC patients staged ITC...
