It was the same to me. My doctor did not notice LVI on the pathology summary report until I brought it up. It’s why they asked me to go back to have the 2nd surgery and to remove my Lymph Nodes this time because of LVI status. What was your 2nd opinion doctor say about this?

All 4 of my opinions didn't have much to say about the LVI. They went by my low Oncotype. I did ask if it was focal or extensive (focal) and if it was in lymph or blood vessels or both (lymph).

Is the second surgery you mentioned, just for lymph nodes? Didn't they take a sentinel node in the first surgery?
