Deskripsi
IntroductionâSeroma formation is a common complication following axillary dissection. The pathogenesis of seroma is poorly understood. Various chemical and mechanical methods have been tried to reduce seroma with varying results. In this study, we look at a novel method of axillary dissection to reduce seroma and its attendant morbidity. The objective of the study is to compare endofascial axillary lymphadenectomy with routine axillary lymphadenectomy regarding axillary drain output following breast conservation surgery.
