Purpose: An Expert Panel on Breast Cancer and COVID-19 was convened to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic for early breast cancer management. Methods: In order to ensure the most clinically relevant information was addressed, essential information was drawn from several of the latest national and international guidelines and another technical document. The Expert Panel met in five virtual closed sessions from November 2020 to May 2021 to consult on the relevant data from evidence-based results. The data gathered were discussed on an online platform (Within3 ®). Results: This paper reports the Expert Panel’s highlights of these meetings’ discussions. In addition, it provides practical recommendations covering topics regarding diagnosis, treatment, and management of breast cancer patients in clinical settings routinely encountered by HCPs amid the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusions: It was provided guidance on several topics regarding eBC management amid the COVID-19 pandemics to inform safer care practices.

The role of axillary surgery in the management of early breast cancer is currently the topic of intense debate in the literature. There are strong indications that women are presenting with earlier tumours and hence the majority have negative axillary nodes making axillary dissection less beneficial both in terms of disease control and less likely to result in an alteration of management. Alternative less morbid axillary staging and non-axillary staging methods are being investigated, but sentinel node biopsy shows the most promise for reliable assessment of the axilla. This review aims to assess the current literature regarding the role of axillary surgery in breast cancer management. The reasoning why axillary dissection is still the gold standard in breast cancer management is explained and related to the other methods of axillary assessment and therapy. Suggested guidelines for current optimal management are made.
