各种示踪技术在乳腺癌前哨淋巴结的应用进展

Application Progress of Various Tracer Techniques in Sentinel Lymph Node of Breast Cancer

乳腺癌是全球范围内最常见的癌症,且发病率逐年上升,非常严重影响女性身体和身心健康。而前哨淋巴结(sentinel lymph node, SLN)为乳腺癌淋巴结转移的第一个或第一组淋巴结,可反映腋窝淋巴结的病理状态,是影响患者预后的重要因素。目前,前哨淋巴结活检(sentinel lymph node biopsy, SLNB)已成为临床淋巴结阴性乳腺癌患者腋窝分期的标准,随着示踪技术的进步,各种示踪技术在乳腺癌前哨淋巴结检查中得到广泛应用,可提高检查准确率。本文对各种示踪技术在乳腺癌前哨淋巴结检查中的应用进行综述。

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the world, and its incidence is increasing year by year, which seriously affects women’s physical and mental health. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) is the first or first group of lymph node metastasis in breast cancer, which can reflect the pathological state of axillary lymph nodes and is an important factor affecting the prognosis of patients. At present, sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become the standard of axillary staging in patients with clinical lymph node-negative breast cancer. With the progress of tracer technology, various tracer techniques have been widely used in sentinel lymph node examination of breast cancer, which can improve the accuracy of examination. This article reviews the application of various tracer techniques in sentinel lymph node examination of breast cancer.
