🌸 Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: A Smarter, Safer Approach for Breast Cancer Patients 🌸

Gone are the days of routinely removing all axillary lymph nodes in early breast cancer.

✅ With Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB), we can:

>Accurately check if the cancer has spread

>Avoid unnecessary lymph node removal

>Minimize risks of arm swelling (lymphedema), pain, and stiffness

>Speed up recovery and preserve quality of life

It's a small procedure with a big impact — especially for women with early-stage breast cancer and clinically negative nodes.

As a surgical oncologist, I advocate for evidence-based, patient-centered care — and SLNB is one way we ensure that.

👩‍⚕️💬 If you or a loved one has been diagnosed with breast cancer and want to know your best surgical options, send me a message or consult at one of my clinics.
