Sentinel-Lymph-Node Multicenter Trials

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2020
Well executed multicenter clinical trials often provide significant evidence and support for, or against, foundational aspects of clinical procedures perceived to improve clinical management of a medical condition. In this review, discussed are reports of multicenter clinical trials designed to investigate sentinel lymph node biopsy procedures in seven

Sentinel lymph nodes: Optimizing success

Seminars in Roentgenology, 2001
R ECENT INTEREST and enthusiasm for lymphoscintigraphy, the imaging of flow through lymphatic vessels to lymph nodes, has accelerated as popularization of the sentinel node concept has taken hold. In 1977, the sentinel node concept was articulated by Cabanas ~ as he applied it to the surgical management of cancer of the penis.

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy Procedures

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 2017
Accurate staging of many cancers with no clinical evidence of lymph node involvement is often a critical component of the management of such cancers and is generally and historically accomplished by accurate pathological assessment of multiple nodes.

Therapeutic Sentinel Lymph Node Imaging

Seminars in Thoracic and Cardiovascular Surgery, 2009
Improving existing means of sentinel lymph node identification in non-small cell lung cancer will allow for molecular detection of occult micrometastases that may cause recurrence in early stage non-small cell lung cancer. Furthermore, targeted application of chemical and biological cytotoxic agents can potentially improve outcomes in patients with ...

Sentinel lymph node biopsy using lymphoscintigraphy

Plastic Surgical Nursing, 1998
ABSTRACTCancer surgery has existed as an elective treatment modality for more than 150 years, yet it is relatively unsophisticated in light of the advances seen in other medical disciplines. Using the nuclear medicine technique of lymphoscintigraphy (ie, mapping lymph nodes using a radioactive isotope), the surgeon can perform a sentinel lymph node ...

Lymph Nodes in Cancer: Sentinel Lymph Node

2020
The lymphatic system is an anatomical and physiological complex where dramatic events in oncological diseases can be observed. Assessing his condition, you can make a certain forecast about the possible course of the disease, take active measures to prevent the spread of cancer, and much more. The role of secondary lymphoid organs in the development of

When Sentinel Lymph Node is Intramammary

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2007
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is an accepted standard of care for staging the axilla in patients with early-stage breast cancer. Little attention has been placed to the presence of intramammary sentinel lymph nodes (intraMSLNs) on preoperative lymphoscintigraphy.Between December 2001 and September 2006, in 9632 breast cancer patients with clinically ...

Lymphodynamic Properties Governing Sentinel Lymph Nodes

Annals of Surgical Oncology, 2004
Biological properties of lymph microvessels include characteristics of spontaneous contractions of lymph vessels, nitric oxide (NO)-mediated modulation of active lymph pump activity, flow-induced production and release of NO from lymphatic endothelial cells, and localization of NO synthase in cultured lymphatic endothelial cells.

Sentinel Lymph Nodes

2011
One of the most important prognostic factors in breast cancer is the involvement of regional lymph nodes. Until recently, axillary lymph node dissection was the standard of care in the primary surgical management of breast cancer. However, it has been replaced with sentinel lymph node biopsy or dissection (SLND).
