At Dr. Namrata (Agarwal) Mahansaria’s clinic, we offer sentinel lymph node biopsy as a crucial diagnostic procedure for breast cancer staging. This minimally invasive technique helps determine whether cancer has spread to the lymph nodes, guiding treatment decisions and providing valuable information about the extent of the disease. Dr. Namrata and her skilled team are dedicated to conducting accurate and precise sentinel lymph node biopsies to aid in the effective management of breast cancer.
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a surgical procedure performed to identify and examine the sentinel lymph nodes, which are the first few lymph nodes that receive drainage from the tumor site. These lymph nodes are most likely to contain cancer cells if the disease has spread beyond the breast. By analyzing the sentinel lymph nodes, we can determine the extent of lymph node involvement and assess the stage of breast cancer.
The sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure typically involves the following steps:
Sentinel lymph node biopsy offers several advantages over traditional lymph node removal techniques:
After the sentinel lymph node biopsy, our medical team will closely monitor your recovery. You may experience mild discomfort, swelling, or bruising around the incision site, which is normal and can be managed with appropriate post-operative care. Dr. Namrata will provide detailed aftercare instructions and schedule follow-up appointments to assess your healing progress, discuss the pathology results, and plan further treatment if needed.
After breast reconstruction surgery, our dedicated medical team will closely monitor your recovery and provide comprehensive post-operative care instructions. You may experience temporary discomfort, swelling, and restricted movement in the initial stages. Dr. Namrata will guide you on pain management, wound care, and when to resume regular activities. Regular follow-up visits will be scheduled to assess your healing progress and address any concerns that arise.
