摘要
本回顾性研究旨在比较吲哚菁绿(ICG)、锝-99 (Tc-99m)和联合技术(ICG + Tc-99m)在临床淋巴结阴性早期乳腺癌患者术前和术后新辅助化疗(NAC)中前哨淋巴结(SLN)检测的敏感性。方法纳入2021年12月至2024年5月期间接受乳腺手术并进行SLN活检的乳腺癌患者。在SLN活检中,ICG和Tc-99m联合使用。主要结局是比较ICG、Tc-99m和联合技术的SLN检出率(每例)和节点检出率(每个节点)。结果176例患者(术前128例,术后48例)共发现sln 326例。ICG和Tc-99m在术前(96.1%比95.3%,P = 0.65)和术后(89.6%比85.4%,P = 0.41) SLN检出率无显著差异。与Tc-99m相比,ICG组鉴定出的sln的平均数量更高(1.6±1.0比1.4±0.9,P <;0.001)。ICG的总淋巴结检出率高于Tc-99m (86.2% vs. 74.2%, P <;0.001)。与单独使用Tc-99m相比,使用联合技术显著提高了SLN的检出率,特别是在nac后(93.8% vs 85.4%)。0.05),假阴性率为2.1%。结论在术前和NAC情况下,sicg对SLN的检测具有高灵敏度,与Tc-99m相当。使用双示踪剂也显著提高了NAC后SLN的检出率,这表明ICG可能是一种有效的SLN定位替代示踪剂,与NAC无关。
Comparative efficacy of indocyanine green and Tc-99m for sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer: Upfront surgery and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy
Background
This retrospective study aimed to compare the sensitivity of sentinel lymph node (SLN) detection using indocyanine green (ICG), Technetium-99 (Tc-99m), and combined technique (ICG + Tc-99m) in clinical node-negative early-stage breast cancer patients, both in upfront surgery and post-neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) settings.
Method
Breast cancer patients who underwent breast surgery with SLN biopsy from December 2021 to May 2024 were enrolled. Both ICG and Tc-99m were used in combination during the SLN biopsy. The primary outcome was the SLN detection rate (per case) and nodal detection rate (per node) compared between ICG, Tc-99m, and combined technique.
Results
176 patients (128 upfront surgery, 48 post-NAC) were analyzed and a total of 326 SLNs were identified. The SLN detection rate was not different between ICG and Tc-99m in upfront surgery (96.1 % vs. 95.3 %, P = 0.65) and post-NAC (89.6 % vs. 85.4 %, P = 0.41). The mean number of identified SLNs was higher with ICG compared to Tc-99m (1.6 ± 1.0 vs. 1.4 ± 0.9, P < 0.001). ICG exhibited a higher overall nodal detection rate than Tc-99m (86.2 % vs. 74.2 %, P < 0.001). Using the combined technique significantly increased the SLN detection rate particularly in post-NAC compared to Tc-99m alone (93.8 % vs 85.4 %, P < 0.05) with a false negative rate of 2.1 %.
Conclusions
ICG demonstrated high sensitivity for SLN detection, comparable to Tc-99m in both upfront surgery and NAC settings. Using dual tracers also significantly improved the SLN detection rate in post-NAC setting, suggesting that ICG may serve as an effective alternative tracer for SLN mapping, regardless of NAC.
