The role of supraclavicular lymph node dissection (SCLD) in the treatment of breast cancer with ipsilateral supraclavicular lymph node metastasis (ISLM) remains controversial. We evaluated the role of SCLD in the treatment of breast cancer with ISLM and identified patients who may benefit from SCLD.
