Just curious what the practice pattern is nationally for cytokeratin staining on breast sentinel lymph nodes. Are you all doing this in your practice or is it just H&E examination? When I was in training it was routine to order cytokeratin on breast sentinel lymph nodes and I know that many places still do this. What is the general rule where you are? Is there any good literature to guide practice on this issue or is there a consensus opinion of breast experts?
