Subareolar Injection May Be More Accurate Than Other Techniques for Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Breast Cancer

Abstract: This study of dye-only injection into the SA plexus demonstrates a high sentinel node identification rate, absent FN rate, and rapid learning curve. On the basis of these findings, we propose that injections into the SA lymphatic plexus are the optimal way to perform dye-only lymphatic mapping of the breast.

“…Many investigators have demonstrated that SLNs could be identified more successfully by SA injection than PT injection [19][20][21][22]. The superiority of the SA injection method is probably due to the following reasons [21].…”

“…Die Adipositas ist ein Risikofaktor für das Verpassen des Sentinel-Lymphknotens [5], weshalb vor allem bei solchen Patientinnen nicht nur auf die eine Darstellungsmethode abgestellt werden soll. Die Erkennungsrate kann dadurch gesteigert werden, dass die Injektion des Radionuklids intrakutan [6] oder periareolär [7] erfolgt. Ein hohes Injektionsvolumen jedoch hat beim Blaufarbstoff offenbar keine nennenswerte Steigerung der Endeckungsrate zur Folge [8].…”

“…The overall detection rate was 212/218 or 97.2%, while during the evaluation period it was 38/ 48 or 89.6% (failures were procedures No. 6,7, 22, 24 and 47). Among the first 48 cases, 24 had histologically proven metastasis to one or more of the axillary lymph nodes.…”

“…Mit dem Ort der Tracerinjektion beschäftigen sich mehrere Arbeiten [19][20][21][22]. Zusammenfassend scheint die Injektion in den Tumor extra-axilläre Sentinel-Lymphknoten besser darzustellen, als die intradermale, peritumorale oder retroareoläre.…”
