Question:
A 42-year-old woman felt a mass in her left breast while taking a shower. She was later diagnosed with infiltrating ductal carcinoma. The mass is removed with lumpectomy along with an axillary lymph node dissection. Which of the following findings will best predict a better prognosis for this patient?
Correct Answer: E. Lymph node biopsies are negative
Lymph nodes without any tumor cells are a good predictor of better survival. It is an indication of metastasis-free breast cancer. All other choices are associated with a bad prognosis.
