Interest of Sentinel Lymph Node Technique in Women With a Multifocal Breast Cancer - IGASSU-0502


The sentinel lymph node is located preferentially by:

- association of subareolar injection of technecium and blue dye

- or, in case of blue dye allergy, by the subareolar injection of technecium only

- or, in case of no possibility of radioactive isotope subareolar injection , by blue dye
injection only This procedures are made the day before the surgery or the day of the
surgery

- This procedure is immediately follows by complete axillary dissection during breast
surgery

- The anatomopathologic analysis of the 2 samples (sentinel lymph node and axillary
dissection) and the histologic confirmation on the removed tumor of the multifocal
nature of the breast cancer correspond to the end of the study for the patient.
