## Abstract ## BACKGROUND The sensitivity of the intraoperative diagnosis of sentinel lymph node (SLN) micrometastases and the metastases of invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is low. The goal of the current study was to assess whether the use of intraoperative, rapid immunohistochistochemistry (IHC
## Abstract ## BACKGROUND Sentinel lymph node (SLN) sampling is used to predict axillary lymph node (AxLN) metastasis in patients with breast carcinoma; AxLN sampling can be avoided in SLNβnegative patients. Multistep sectioning and immunohistochemistry are reported to increase the sensitivity of
