According to the results of our study, we conclude that perioareolar intradermal injection of Tc-99m tin colloid combined with peritumoral intraparenchymal injection of blue dye is an accurate and easy method of locating the sentinel node with very high detection rates. It is recommended that the combination of all methods such as lymphoscintigraphy, blue dye, and gamma probe application will increase the success rate of SLN detection in patients with breast cancer.
