Publisher Description

Introduction Management of the axilla in breast cancer has evolved rapidly following the implementation of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). Histological examination of the sentinel node allows accurate prediction of the overall stage of the axilla in 97% of patients [1-5]. Following SLNB, approximately 25-30% of patients will be identified as having a positive biopsy [3,6,7].
