Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will monitor the safety of FS VH S/D and will evaluate whether FS VH S/D is superior to conventional surgical procedures in the reduction of lymphatic leakage by sealing the axillary lymphatics in subjects undergoing lumpectomy and level I and II axillary lymph node dissection with two separate incisions.
