Özet

Purpose : Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) appears to offer an excellent alternative method to routine axillary lymph node dissection for staging patients with breast cancer. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of excisional biopsy on identification and false negative rate of sentinel lymph node biopsy with blue dye alone in breast cancer patients with clinically negative axilla.
