Abstract
Abstract: This article reviews the ultrasound evaluation and staging of breast cancer with respect to the involvement of interpectoral (Rotter) lymph nodes. The primary objective is to demonstrate and assess the characteristic sonographic findings of interpectoral (Rotter) lymph nodes to help provide accurate nodal staging information. We aim to provide a comprehensive review and serve as an imaging guide for the identification and evaluation of Rotter lymph nodes. The detection of abnormalities and pathologic features of metastatic axillary nodal disease in the interpectoral region is reviewed, and the impact on clinical management and treatment is discussed. In the radiology literature, there is no comprehensive review of the sonographic appearance and evaluation of Rotter lymph nodes.
