Evaluation of Axilla With Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (Using Methylene-Blue) and Reverse Axillary Mapping (Using Fluorescein) to Validate Optimum and Safe Axillary Dissection in Breast Cancer

Introduction Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has replaced routine axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) in node-negative axillae. In cases where the axilla needs to be dissected, one must dissect below the uppermost intercostobrachial nerve (ICBN) to avoid damaging arm lymphatics. Methods One mill...
