Brief description SNAC1 will determine if sentinel node based management (a smaller operation removing a few lymph nodes) results in better quality of life and equivalent cure rates after 10 years follow-up compared with routine axillary clearance (a larger operation removing many lymph nodes) in over 1000 women with early breast cancer recruited to this large scale randomized trial from 2001 to 2005
