ABSTRACT
Breast cancer is the most common female malignant tumor all over the world, and it seriously threats to women's health.As surgical treatment of breast cancer continuously develops to the mode of "the smallest and the most effective", sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has emerged. SLNB can avoid axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and reduce the complications of ALND. In recent years, some clinical research results have showed that the prognosis of sentinel lymph node (SLN) positive breast cancer patients who do not accept ALND can not be affected. The necessity of performing ALND for SLN positive breast cancer patients still needs to be investigated.
