Summary This book is Concise, portable, and user-friendly. Sentinel Node Biopsy in Breast Cancer focuses on the background, evolution, and newer advances in the concepts and techniques of sentinel node biopsy in patients with breast cancer. The authors include global experts in the field from India, the UK, the USA, and other countries to cover up the regional differences and biases and provide clear and evidence-based answers to all aspects focusing on the address of the axilla in breast cancer which is now arguably the most common cancer of the human race. Key features: A detailed and practical approach to the surgical anatomy of axilla An up-to-date review of all landmark trials in the field of sentinel node biopsy This book provides concise guidelines and the algorithmic & step by step approach to various techniques, including recent advances. Explains about limitations and merits of all sentinel node biopsy techniques in breast cancer and the approach to tailoring it to the patient, center, and surgeon. Address of axilla in various resource-constrained scenarios.
