IBC involves the skin, so it must be removed. The entire breast may contain dispersed disease so it must be carefully examined pathologically. • Axillary dissection must be done for adequate staging and removal of any resistant disease. Note: Sentinel node biopsy is not recommended and frequently fails in IBC patients due to the involvement of regional lymphatics. 29

Skin must be left behind to • Fifth level cover an expander, and this skin might harbor residual IBC, leading to rapid recurrence. • Placing expanders at time of mastectomy dictates a schedule for filling and future surgeries to complete reconstruction. This schedule compromises the overall care for several potential reasons: • Poor radiation coverage of the chest wall and nodes is a consequence of expanders being in place. • Complications from larger surgery such as poor wound healing/failed reconstruction can unnecessarily delay radiation (a key component of local control) • Delayed reconstruction (by autologous methods) may be considered in IBC patients who are still disease-free 2 years post surgery. Implants are not usually possible due to skin changes postradiation. 30
