Abstract

Objective:To determine the value of sentinel lymph node biopsy for breastcancer.Method:82 cases of operable breast cancer were treated with 1% methylene blue as a sentinel lymph node(SLN) tracer.Results: All rows modified radical mastectomy,lines SLN and axillary lymph node(ALN) biopsy,the whole group of 82 patients successfully detected SLN 78 cases,4 cases were not detected,the detection rate of 95.12%,96.15% accuracy rate.Conclusion: Methylene blue for SLN identification will help simplify the way breast cancer surgery to improve patients quality of life.
