Abstract:
Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been generally accepted as a method for nodal staging in patients with early-stage breast cancer. Patients with negative results of sentinel lymph node biopsy can avoid axillary lymph node dissection and its adverse outcomes. With the development of technology,the in-dications of sentinel lymph node biopsy expand,but its appliance in breast cancer patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy still remains controversial. This paper reviews the feasibility and timing of sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer patients with neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
