Intervention  Indocyanine green dye  In the operating room, after induction of anesthesia and after the preparation of the surgical field, surgeon will prepare ICG (Aurogreen, 25 mg reconstituted with 10 mL of distilled water) and 3 ml(7.5mg) is withdrawn and 1 ml is injected in each periareolar site, at 6, 9, 12 o’clock for Right breast and 3,6,12 o’clock for left breast. ● After the injection, the breast will be gently massaged for 5-10 minutes. ● Then the lymphatic pathway will be traced with the use of the fluorescence

Brief Summary  
Background: In breast cancer Axillary lymph node status is one of the most
important prognostic factors in patients with
breast cancer. Axillary lymph node dissection is
an integral part of surgical management.
However, it may lead to increased morbidity
such as impaired sensation (56%), Chronic pain (37%) and also debilitating lymphedema
(21.4%) in some patients which is irreversible
leading to poor functional outcome
Rationale : ICG is a tricarbocyanine dye which fluoresces,
i.e. emits light, after excitation under near-
infrared light at 806)nm light. ICG is highly
soluble in water and binds to β-lipoproteins,
particularly to albumin. Because of the high
protein content of lymph, ICG accumulates in
the lymphatic pathways and lymph nodes. ICG-
dyed lymph nodes become visible 5 minutes
after light excitation and remain visible for
around 60 minutes
Optical imaging using the near-infrared (NIR)
üuorescence lymphatic tracer using indocyanine
green (ICG) has shown promising results as an
alternative for, or an addition to, conventional
SLN mapping.
The role of ICG fluorescence alone in detecting
SLNin the post neoadjuvant treatment setting
has been reported in a few studies.
Expected outcome:The expected outcome of the study is to know
the accuracy of ICG in the identification of
sentinel lymph nodes after neoadjuvant
treatment in carcinoma breast patients
undergoing surgery. If found to be accurate, this
study could contribute to de-escalating the
axillary management among breast cancer patients in the post neoadjuvant treatment
setting.
