This study is aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of TachoSil in controlling lymphatic leakage in breast cancer patients undergoing axillary dissection. By examining its ability to reduce postsurgical lymphatic drainage, the study will assess its impact on complications like seroma formation, recovery time, and overall patient outcomes, including quality of life and reduced healthcare costs. Breast cancer patients treated in the Department of Surgical Oncology at King Abdulaziz Medical City were enrolled to receive either TachoSil or undergo drain placement after axillary dissection.

This study aimed to compare postoperative lymphatic leakage between the polymer ligation clip and vessel sealer, and evaluated the costs associated with the former. Methods The study enrolled patients who underwent RARP with PLND at our institution between April 2018 and March 2023 and were treated with a vessel sealer (LigaSure Blunt Tip 44 NC; Medtronic, Dublin, Ireland) until September 2021, and Hem-o-lok polymer ligation clips(Teleflex, Wayne, PA, USA) thereafter.
