axilla is important because of the prognostic importance of lymph node metastases. After neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT), targeted axillary dissection (TAD), including sentinel lymph node biopsy and primarily involved lymph nodes, is currently regarded asthe standard of care. The target lymph node must be marked using a clip/marker and later localized using a reliable guidance technique to identify the node, to avoid the indication of axillary lymph node dissection. Methods: The present study aimed to evaluate retrospective data collected from April 25, 2022, until March 30, 2023, on a consecutive series of patients, to determine the efficacyand safety of using the Sirius Pintuition GPSDetect™ surgical marker navigation system. Results: This consecutive case series shows that identification of the target node with surgical marker navigation is feasible and safe, with a 100%  \nidentification rate at surgery, in a population of 20 patients with histologically verified axillary lymph node involvement before NACT. Conclusion: Magnetically guided localization systems may therefore be a valid alternative to ultrasound-guided wire placement. The data highlight the practicality of the magnetically guided approach, which potentially contributes to a reduction in treatment-related morbidity by avoiding unnecessary axillary lymph node dissection. © 2025 The Author(s) .  \nPublished by S. Karger AG, Basel  \nIntroduction  \nNeoadjuvant chemotherapy (NACT) is regarded as a standard treatment approach in patients with stage II/ III human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2) -positive and triple-negative breast cancer. The use of NACT allows for downsizing and downstaging of the disease, in vivo sensitivity testing, and responseadapted tailoring of post-neoadjuvant treatment. In hormone receptor (HR)-positive/HER2-negative (luminal) disease, NACT can be used in aggressive cases of the disease requiring adjuvant chemotherapy, but it is usually preferred in cases of more advanced local  \n[karger@karger.com](karger@karger.com)[ ](karger@karger.com)[www.karger.com/brc](www.karger.com/brc)  \n© 2025 The Author(s) .  \nPublished by S.
