Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
Background Radio Isotopes and Blue dye alone or in combination are the most commonly used tracer agents in sentinel Node Biopsy for early breast cancer. Recent studies have found fluorescence method using Indo Cyanine Green as a promising technology with fewer disadvantages. This study represents the first within a North African setting. Methods Retrospective analysis of our database that includes patients with clinically node-negative breast cancer scheduled for breast surgery and SN biopsy between 2016 and January 2021. Patients who underwent detection using fluorescence-ICG were included in this study.
