Feasibility of preoperative tattooing of percutaneously biopsied axillary lymph node: an experimental pilot study
Abstract Background In the last three decades, axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) has been replaced by sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) in all clinically node-negative patients. However, when SLNB alone is performed in clinically node-positive patients who are rendered node-negative by neoadjuva...
