Summary:
The term "Frozen Section" refers to the examination of tissue taken and examined during a surgical procedure. The pathologist is asked to respond within a short time to a few key questions that affect the development of an intervention during its course. The correct diagnosis of frozen section is a reference point for the surgeon, who often modifies the type of surgery, so he should know both the indications and the limitations of the method. Frozen section biopsy is considered to be a reliable diagnostic method, whose diagnostic accuracy ranges from 94% to 98%. The practical history of frozen section as a diagnostic could be identified by its application to breast cancer. The histological examination of breast frozen section biopsy does not require special ability or special handling, apart from attention to characteristic morphological details. The goal of the breast surgeon is to ensure healthy, free or otherwise clear margins in an operation whenever possible. Therefore, the evaluation of surgical margins during surgery is desirable from the surgeon. The value of a sufficient surgical margin in reducing the rate of local recurrence has been established in both invasive and in situ breast cancer. A combination of careful macroscopic control and simple palpation helps to limit the extent of the tumor. Based on limited data, rapid frozen section can be a fairly reliable method for assessing surgical margins. In addition, in recent years, the sentinel lymph node biopsy is one of the most important developments in Surgical Oncology. The general idea of the "sentinel lymph node" is that the earliest metastasis is the result of spread via lymphatic system to the closest lymph node and therefore if the biopsy of the lymph node is negative, there is a valid acceptance that the cancer has not spread to other parts of the body. Each area of the breast has its own sentinel lymph node. If the sentinel lymph node is metastasized by cancer cells then all of the armpit lymph nodes should be surgically removed. If the sentinel lymph node does not have metastasis from cancer cells, then no lymphatic cleansing of the armpit is required.
