A sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy in breast cancer patients, performed under local anesthesia (LA), could have advantages such as more efficient use of operating room time and pathologist time. It also provides a histologic diagnosis before definitive breast surgery is undertaken. The aim of this study was to assess feasibility by comparing the results of SLN procedures performed under LA versus general anesthesia (GA).
