Conditions

Interventions

DEVICE

methylene blue intradermal injection

Methylene blue has been prove to be effective and safe as a blue dye for sentinel lymph node biopsy in early breast cancer patient. But it was also reported by some article that adverse skin lesions appeared after methylene blue injections for sentinel lymph node localization. But the effectiveness and safety of methylene blue intradermal injection has not yet been investigated.

DEVICE

methylene blue subcutaneous injection

Methylene blue subcutaneous injection has become one of the standard method for sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer patients. In such case, we use this method to be an active comparator for the intradermal injection group.
