Evaluating the feasibility of repeat sentinel lymph node biopsy in ipsilateral breast tumor recurrence: Technical considerations and oncologic outcomes
rSLNB in patients with IBTR, particularly for tumors initially located outside the upper-outer quadrant, demonstrated technical feasibility. The combined use of blue dye with lymphoscintigraphy may enhance rSLNB success rates. Active surveillance, especially for triple negative IBTR cases, may be important due to their aggressive nature and rapid progression potential within a short interval post-IBTR.
