Sentinel lymph node biopsy in Japan [PDF]

International Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2009
Similar to the practice in Western countries, intraoperative lymphatic mapping and selected lymphadenectomy (SLNB) have been validated and are widely performed for the staging of melanoma in Japan. Recent studies have shown that approximately 90% (73/81) of university hospitals and several cancer hospitals routinely perform SLNB, and half of all ...

The Accuracy of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy Compared with Axillary Lymph Node Dissection in Breast Cancer

Middle East Journal of Cancer, 2011
Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy is used as an accurate staging procedure to detect early breast cancer. Several studies have documented that sentinel lymph node biopsy can accurately determine the status of axillary nodes.

Long‐term prognosis is associated with residual disease after neoadjuvant systemic therapy but not with initial nodal status

BJS (British Journal of Surgery), EarlyView., 2020
This long‐term follow‐up study determined survival rates in a Swedish national cohort of 417 patients with breast cancer who all had neoadjuvant systemic therapy (NAST). Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) was performed before NAST in clinically node‐negative and after NAST in clinically node‐positive patients.

The Outcome of Patients with Melanoma Is Not Associated with the Time Point of Lymphatic Mapping with Respect to Excisional Biopsy of the Primary Tumor [PDF]

, 2010
Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has become the standard care for melanoma and is an important diagnostic procedure. It has been doubted whether lymphoscintigraphy detects the correct sentinel lymph node (SLN) when excision of the tumor and ...

Impact of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy on Treatment Decision and Survival in Patients Aged ≥70 Years with Breast Cancer: A Retrospective Study

Technology in Cancer Research & Treatment, 2022
Background: Whether sentinel lymph node biopsy should be performed in patients ≥70 years old with early-stage invasive breast cancer is controversial. We examined the effect of sentinel lymph node biopsy on the treatment and outcomes in this population ...

NEONOD 2: Rationale and design of a multicenter non-inferiority trial to assess the effect of axillary surgery omission on the outcome of breast cancer patients presenting only micrometastasis in the sentinel lymph node after neoadjuvant chemotherapy

Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2020
Sentinel lymph node biopsy alone, without complete axillary lymph node dissection, is the standard treatment of the axilla nodal chain in early-stage breast cancer patients presenting a negative sentinel lymph node. The updated results of the IBCSG 23-01
