Abstract: With the progress of comprehensive treatment of breast cancer, the surgical treatment of axillary lymph nodes presents a degraded treatment mode under the guidance of evidence-based medicine. The indications and contraindications of sentinel lymph node biopsy for early breast cancer have been very clear, but there are still many specific problems in clinical practice that surgeons are concerned about. This article discusses the recently published research on sentinel lymph node biopsy in order to draw the attention of surgical colleagues to the new hot issues of sentinel lymph node biopsy in early breast cancer, and promote standardized surgery and the promotion of new treatment concepts.
