Biopsia del ganglio centinela y quimioterapia neoadyuvante en pacientes con cáncer de mama: nuestra experiencia

The detection rate for SLNB prior to NAC is excellent. A second SLNB after NAC in women with a positive SLN at diagnosis is not useful. SLNB after NAC is feasible in cN0 and cN1 patients at diagnosis, clinically axillary node-negative after therapy (ycN0), with subsequent axillary lymph node dissection if the SLNB is positive or not identified during surgery, when performed by an experienced multidisciplinary team.
