Study Summary

This Feasibility study is trying to determine: * If Lymphoscintigraphy (imaging of the lymphatic drainage patterns) is effective in demonstrating the drainage to the sentinel lymph nodes in patients with inflammatory breast cancer. * The likelihood of identifying the sentinel lymph nodes in the operating room, using both blue dye and the radioactive substance used for lymphoscintigraphy. * The incidence of lymphedema (arm swelling which occurs after lymph node surgery) in women with inflammatory breast cancer * Outcomes for women with inflammatory breast cancer, whether or not the sentinel lymph nodes can be identified.

Primary Outcome

The identification rate will be calculated as a ratio of the number of patients in whom SLN(s) were successfully identified over the total number of patients in whom SLN mapping was attempted.
