Brief Summary: RATIONALE Diagnostic procedures such as sentinel lymph node biopsy may improve the ability to detect breast cancer and determine the extent of disease

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of sentinel lymph node biopsy to assess axillary lymph nodes in women who have stage I or stage II breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare sentinel node biopsy vs axillary dissection in determining axillary nodal status in women with resectable stage I or II breast cancer

OUTLINE Patients are stratified according to node status positive vs negative

Patients undergo lymphoscintigraphy which consists of technetium Tc 99m human serum albumin colloid being injected near the tumor Dynamic imaging using a gamma camera is performed for 20 minutes postinjection and static images are obtained for up to 3 hours postinjection

Surgery is performed within 24 hours of lymphoscintigraphy Patients are injected with patent blue V dye near the tumor and a gamma detection probe is used to measure radioactive counts in the sentinel node Surgery begins within 5 minutes of the patent blue V dye injection

All lymph nodes that stain blue or have a high radioactive count are removed The primary breast lump is removed by either wide local excision or mastectomy and the axilla are cleared by standard axillary dissection

Some patients may only receive patent blue V dye injected as a pilot study Sentinel lymph node biopsy and axillary dissection proceed as above

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 150 patients 75 per stratum will be accrued for the main study plus another 50 patients for the pilot study
