Excerpt

The article Transaxillary Breast Augmentation: Two Breast Cancer Patients With Successful Sentinel Lymph Node Diagnosis is a very interesting and important report in view of the clinical and surgical implications that can influence breast augmentation surgeries. One of the most discussed points in cosmetic breast surgery is exactly the issue of eventual sentinel lymph node (SLN) damage during a transaxillary breast augmentation (TBA). …
