Abstract
Although overall IMS was used in only 140 patients (58%), concordance with guidelines was high at 85% (206 of 242 patients). However, rates of intraoperative nodal sampling for non-IMS cases (both concordant and nonconcordant) was lower than expected, resulting in potentially understaged patients.
