Clinical Trial: Does Using Ultrasound Guidance During Axillary Incision Improve the Detection of Sentinel Lymph Nodes in Breast Cancer Patients?

U.S., Jan. 15 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07338721) titled 'Does Using Ultrasound Guidance During Axillary Incision Improve the Detection of Sentinel Lymph Nodes in Breast Cancer Patients?' on Jan. 04.

Brief Summary: This single-center randomized controlled trial evaluates whether detecting the first lymph node at the axillary entrance with ultrasound guidance, followed by a targeted axillary incision over the pencil-marked projection, improves sentinel lymph node identification compared to the conventional axillary hairline landmark. The study hypothesizes that this technique enables a smaller incision, minimizes tissue dissection, and reduces operative time.
