Methods: a total of 78 patients with breast cancer received by our hospital (from January 2020 to December 2020) were selected as the research object and randomly divided into control group and observation group. The cleaning time of axillary drainage lymph, the length of hospital stay and the complication rate were used as indexes to compare the surgical effect. Results: the cleaning time and hospitalization days of axillary drainage lymph nodes in the observation group were improved, and the complications were reduced, compared with those in the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: sentinel lymphadenectomy in the treatment of early breast cancer has achieved ideal results with less postoperative complications and rapid recovery.展开更多
