Axillary Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy for Breast Cancer and Melanoma Patients after Previous Axillary Surgery: A Systematic Review
Objective: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is a validated staging technique for breast carcinoma. Some women are exposed to have a second SLNB due to breast cancer recurrence or a second neoplasia (breast or other). Due to modified anatomy, it has been claimed that previous axillary surgery represents a contra-indication to SLNB. Our objective was to analyse the literature to assess if a seco...

متن کاملRadioguided sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer surgery.
The concept of sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer surgery relates to the fact that the tumor drains in a logical way through the lymphatic system, from the first to upper levels. Therefore, the first lymph node met (the sentinel node) will most likely be the first to be affected by metastasis, and a negative sentinel node makes it highly unlikely that other nodes are affected. Because ...
متن کاملBreast surgery and sentinel node biopsy. Our experience.
Massive campaigns of screening of breast pathologies improved early diagnosis of breast cancers. Most of these cancers are small-sized (T1) and seldom show intraoperative nodal involvement. Sentinel node biopsy is the elective choice in the above mentioned cases because, if negative, it avoids axillary dissection. International literature reports rates of false negative sentinel node biopsy ran...
متن کاملValue of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Breast Cancer Patients with Previous Excisional Biopsy
PURPOSE Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in breast cancer patients with clinically negative axilla will ensure axillary dissection only for cases with lymph node metastasis and provide information about pathologic staging as accurate as the axillary dissection. It was shown that SLNB could be successfully performed regardless of the type of biopsy. The aim of this study was to investigate the ...
