Abstract:
This article describes the use of USS or CT guided hook-wire localization to aid the excisional biopsy of non-palpable lymph nodes in the cervical, axillary and inguinal regions. This technique allows a more focussed surgical approach intra-operatively to reduce surgical time and morbidity for the patients.
