AIMS: Sentinel Node Biopsy (SNB) is considered an accurate method of detecting axillary lymph node status in patients with small breast cancer. Combined with an accurate and rapid histopathology tool, it could spare this group of patients unnecessary Axillary Node Clearance (ANC) with its associated hazards. Intraoperative examination of SNB for cancer cells has been investigated using both Frozen Sections (FS) and Imprint Cytology (IC) stained with different stains. This study is devoted to establish a reliable and rapid protocol for immunostaining of touch imprints from SNB.
METHODS: We investigated two different EPOS (Enhanced Polymer One-Step staining--DAKO) anticytokeratin antibodies, five different tissue fixatives and different incubation periods and temperatures with both positive and negative controls.
RESULTS: We have developed a protocol, which produced good and consistent immunostaining of touch imprints. The initial results using this protocol are concordant with those of permanent Haematoxylin and Eosin (H&E) sections.
CONCLUSIONS: We propose this protocol for rapid immunostaining of touch imprints of SNB.
