Answer to Question 1

ANS: C
A sentinel node biopsy is done by injecting a radioisotope into the breast mass several hours before the surgical procedure. The patient then comes to the OR where the tumor is injected with a dye containing isosulfan blue that is taken up by the lymph nodes of the breast.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: B
The open abdominal approach involves a muscle-splitting incision in the right lower quadrant, over McBurney's point.
