Accuracy of sentinel node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in breast cancer patients: A systematic review
European Journal of Cancer, 09/01/09

However, there is insufficient evidence to recommend this as a standard procedure. Further research with subgroup analysis using variables reported to be associated with decreased SN accuracy is required in order to clearly define its value in the subgroups of breast cancer patients.
