Abstract
In breast cancer sentinel lymph node biopsy, the number of identified nodes is not influenced by the use of a mixed technique or radiotracer alone. However, the number of identified nodes is higher with the periareolar route than with the intraperitumoral route. Intra-peritumoral injection of the tracer shows a higher frequency of internal mammary chain drainage than periareolar injection, although this difference was not statistically significant.
