This case presentation involved a female patient with breast cancer who underwent a lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy using the Lumicell system for intraoperative detection of residual cancer. The aim was to detect residual tumor cells during the initial operation and avoid subsequent surgeries. This video provides a thorough presentation of lumpectomy and sentinel lymph node biopsy utilizing the Lumicell system to detect any remaining cancer during surgery. The video covers the entire process, from preoperative preparation to the final step of skin closure.
