Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:A major controversial issue in the sentinel node biopsy of the breast is the applicability of sentinel node mapping in patients with the history of previous excisional biopsy of the breast lesions. In the current study, we evaluated the reproducibility of lymphoscintigraphy before and after excisional biopsy of the primary breast lesions using superficial peri-areolar injection of the radiotracer. MATERIAL AND METHODS:Eighteen patients scheduled for excisional biopsy of breast lesions were included into the study. The patients received intra-dermal injection of the radiotracer in the peri-areolar area of the index quadrant 1 to 2h before surgery. Imaging was performed the day after surgery. Immediately after completion of the first imaging, the patients received another injection of the radiotracer with the same technique, dose, and location. Other sets of lymphoscintigraphy imaging were taken immediately and 4h post second injection. The two sets of lymphoscintigraphy images were compared. RESULTS:In 2 patients, sentinel node could not be identified in either set of images. In the remaining 16 patients, one sentinel node was detected in both lymphoscintigraphy image sets. The sentinel nodes of the second image sets were all in the same location of the first sets with at least 5 times higher count. CONCLUSIONS:Excisional biopsy of the primary breast lesions does not seem to change the superficial lymphatic drainage pattern from the areola of the breast and sentinel node mapping can be performed after this procedure using superficial periareolar technique.

杂志文章abstract:OBJECTIVE:The routes of lymphatic drainage from a breast cancer are the axilla (the most frequent) and the extra axillary regions. Among the latter, there are the so-called intrammamary lymph nodes (IMLN). This study has aimed to assess the incidence of IMLNs in our patients and study the evolution of these cases with ...
