Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy or Detection of Micrometastasis in Bone Marrow: Which Might Be an Alternative to Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Breast Cancer Patients?

Asian Journal of Surgery, 2004
Axillary lymph node status has limited prognostic significance in breast cancer patients and much improvement can be made. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is emerging as an alternative to axillary lymph node dissection for staging, but its prognostic ...

Nanoparticles in sentinel lymph node mapping [PDF]

WIREs Nanomedicine and Nanobiotechnology, 2009
AbstractThe lymph nodes and lymphatic vessels are more difficult to access than most vascular structures. Interstitial injection of imaging agents is often necessary to opacify the lymphatics. Traditionally, radionuclide methods of sentinel node imaging have dominated this field, however, limitations in resolution and exposure to radiation have ...

BODIPY‐based J‐aggregates: From supramolecular chemistry to NIR bioimaging and phototherapies

Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.
BODIPY dyes form ordered J‐aggregates through controlled supramolecular self‐assembly, producing narrow, red‐shifted absorption bands with small Stokes shifts. This review highlights design strategies governing J‐aggregation, structure–property relationships, and applications in sensing, bioimaging, and phototherapy, guiding functional BODIPY‐based ...

Safe Omission of Postoperative Neck Irradiation in Selected pN0 Patients With Locally Advanced Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma

Head &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Postoperative radiotherapy is the standard treatment for locally advanced oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC); however, the indication for neck irradiation (NI) in pN0 patients remains debatable. We evaluated whether the omission of NI compromises outcomes in pT3–T4 pN0 patients treated with adequate neck dissection (ND).

Breast Cancer Outcomes From Ductal Carcinoma In Situ: A Population‐Based Cohort Study

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Women with ductal carcinoma in situ have an elevated risk of subsequent invasive breast cancer, but how this risk evolves over time is unclear. In this population‐based study of ethnically diverse women diagnosed between 2000 and 2022 in New Zealand, the risk of invasive ipsilateral breast cancer persisted beyond 5 years.

The Sentinel Lymph Node in Breast Cancer: Problems Posed by Examination During Surgery. A Review of Current Literature and Management

Frontiers in Surgery, 2018
The presence of tumor cells can be identified in the lymph node when metastasis has occurred from the primary cancer site into the lymph node (1) If the sentinel lymph node ganglion is negative for the presence of tumor cells at the time of histological ...
