Objective To investigate the clinical significance of detecting mammaglobin in sentinel lymph nodes(SLN) of breast cancer. Methods In 32 breast cancer patients, methylene blue was injected around parechyma of breast cancer to locate the SLNs, and nested RT PCR(reverse transcriptase polgmecane chain reaction) was used to examine the expression of mammaglobin mRNA. Results The SLN was successfully identified in 30 of the 32 cases(93.8%).The micrometastases detection between group SLNs and non SLNs had significant statistical difference(P
