For the 1st case, no, the procedure was only wide excision biopsy since the tumor was located superficial to the shoulder area. The second case (mine) was taken from the mediastinum, if there were any near identifiable lymph nodes it would likely but sentinel lymph node biopsy wasn't indicated as it was believed to be lipoma pre operatively.
