Brief Summary

The initial standard treatment of breast cancer is surgery. Tumor involvement of lymph nodes is of paramount importance in the subsequent management of this cancer and surgery of invasive breast cancer (BC) involves axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). To preserve arm lymphatic drainage during ALND and avoid the risk of arm lymphedema, mapping the lymphatic drainage by axillary reverse mapping (ARM) has been developed. But oncological safety is uncertain. The ARM procedure presented here uses indocyanine green (ICG) and fluorescence detection of draining lymphatics. The project aims to train surgeons to the technique and to identify predictive factors for metastatic ARM nodes in invasive BC using tumor and axillary pathological parameters to better select patients who would not require removal of the ARM node in the future
