## Abstract Sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) isolated in 40 patients of breast carcinoma (stage T~1~/T~2~) were evaluated intraoperatively by imprint cytology and frozen section. Rapid immunohistochemistry (IHC) was done in cases where both imprint smears and frozen sections were negative for any metasta
