Abstract
The primary treatment of breast cancer in sentinel-positive ganglia includes axillary lymphatic nodal dissection. The LAD (lymphatic axillary dissection) has decreased in overall numbers but due to the increasing incidence of breast cancer, it is practised on a daily basis, even though there is a myriad of complications such as numbness of the upper limb and chest wall, movement restriction of the upper limb, and chronic painwhich appear due to trauma to the nerves which pass through the axilla. However, the utility in the overall survival or DFS (disease-free survival) of the patient is unquestionable. In our study, through the dissection of cadavers, we exposed the vital structures and theanatomical relations of this region. We aimed to offer a map or technique for the surgeon to followto decrease the overall morbidity of this procedure.
