Abstract:
Objective To observe the effect and the skin flap necrosis situation of low concentration methylene blue dye in sentinel lymph node biopsy of breast cancer compared with normal concentration methylene blue dye.Methods One hundred and thirty-eight cases patients with early breast cancer who were treat by sentinel lymph node biopsy surgery in Breast surgery Department of Sichuan ProvincialTumor Hospital from June 2016 to February were selected,and randomly divided into low concentration methylene blue dye group (n =69) and common concentration methylene blue dye group (n =69).Observed and recorded the sentinel lymph node detection and skin flap necrosis of relevance ratio(1％ and 0.1％ concentration methylene blue dye) concentration methylene blue dye in both two groups.Results There were no significant differences in terms of number of sentinel lymph node detection,the detection rate and false negative rate in two groups,while the rate of cutaneous necrosis in low concentration methylene blue dye group was lower (5.8％ vs.0％,P =0.025).Conclusion The effect of low concentration methylene blue dye in sentinel lymph node biopsy of breast cancer is the same as that of common concentration while the low concentration group with fewer side effects.
