متن کاملAxillary reverse mapping in breast cancer with enlarged lymph node
Objective: The research is to explore the success rate and safety of axillary reverse mapping (ARM) and the effect on the function and lymphedema of ipsilateral upper limb, and to investigate the quality-of-life of patients with breast cancer after operation, as well as to explore the related factors affecting the success rate of ARM. Methods: In operation of 60 cases of female patients with en...
