What are the Advantages of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy?
SLNB offers several advantages:
- Minimally Invasive: Compared to full lymph node dissection, SLNB is less invasive, leading to fewer complications. - Accurate Staging: Provides accurate information about cancer spread, aiding in proper staging and treatment planning. - Reduced Morbidity: Lower risk of side effects such as lymphedema (swelling due to lymph fluid).
