Tailored axillary treatment according to the MARI-protocol. Protocol deviations occurred in 10 patients: six cALN<4 patients with pCR of the MARI-node received ART, two cALN<4 patients without MARI-node pCR received no further treatment and two cALN≥4 patients without MARI-node pCR did not undergo ALND. FNAC fine-needle aspiration cytology, cALN<4 less than four FDG-positive axillary lymph nodes, cALN≥4 more than four FDG-positive axillary lymph nodes, pCR pathological complete response, ART axillary radiotherapy, ALND axillary lymph node dissection
