About this study

Primary objective:

Definition of the histological distribution (intravascular, extra vascular, in specific cells) of ICG (pre-operatively intra-venously injected) at the level of tumoral and healthy tissues of breast cancer patients (and the potential of axillary lymph nodes found fluorescent).

Secondary objectives:

Evaluation of the ability of the fluorescence imaging to determine the tumor volume and, more specifically, the boundaries of tumor tissues which will be analyzed by the pathologist.

Analysis of the correlation between fluorescence and "margins" as defined operatively as tumor (microscopically by the pathologist).

Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: No

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Patients with histopathological diagnosis of breast cancer for which a mastectomy with axillary dissection is planned.
  • Informed Consent signed.

Exclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of breast cancer established by lumpectomy or "macro-biopsy".
  • Operation after neo-adjuvant chemotherapy,
  • Age less than 18 years.
  • For pre-menopausal women, an operation planned for the second phase of their cycle.
  • Inability to give informed consent.
  • History of allergy or hypersensitivity to the investigational product, iodine.
  • Clinical or biological hyperthyroidism.
  • Known "toxic" thyroid nodules or known autonomous (hyperfunctional) thyroid.
  • A reported pathological coronary artery disease.
  • Creatinine > 1.5 mg / dl.
  • During the 2 weeks before surgery, being on medications which are known to interfere with the ICG (ie anticonvulsants, heparin and haloperidol).
  • Pregnancy or breast feeding period.

Treatment and study plan

Indocyanine green

Drug

Intravenous injection of 0.25 mg/kg Indocyanine Green (ICG) before the surgery

Other names: ICG

Primary outcomes

  1. Study of the evantual difference of indocyanine in mammalian tissue in patients mastocmemezied for breast canrcinoma.

    Time frame: 10 months

    Detecting of the fluorescence in between benign and malignant tissue by near infra-red imaging with a camera dictated to identify the margin of the tumor, and Histological detection of indocyanine green distribution in tumor bearing breasts and in axillary pieces of dissection and the detection of tumor cells in lymphe nodes.

Secondary outcomes

  1. Microscopical detection of indocyanine green in breast tissue.

    Time frame: 10 months.

    Detecting the fluorescence in between benign and malignant tissue by a microscope with a filter for near ifra-red at a good wave length of ICG.
