Techniques of sentinel lymph node biopsy
Seminars in Surgical Oncology, 2001AbstractAxillary node status is the single most important prognostic factor for patients with primary breast carcinoma. During the last decade, one of the major advances in breast cancer has been the development of techniques that make axillary staging less morbid and more conservative.

Sentinel lymph node biopsy in melanoma
BMJ, 2015Useful only to a small minority of patients who have the procedure There are two diametrically opposed positions on the role of sentinel lymph node biopsy in the management of patients with melanoma. Either sentinel node biopsy affords patients with the best prognostic information and biopsy followed by complete lymph node dissection provides a ...

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Melanoma
Current Treatment Options in Oncology, 2008Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for patients with newly diagnosed localized invasive melanoma provides excellent prognostic information and results in improved regional disease control. Prior to the common use of SLNB, regional nodal recurrence was the single most common site of melanoma recurrence, with symptomatic, bulky disease that could be ...

The utilization of sentinel lymph node biopsies in children is tumor specific and patient dependent. The technique is straightforward with little morbidity, and the means to perform this technique are neither expensive, nor labor intensive. Furthermore, the information gleaned can define the extent of disease, the scope of treatment, and its ...

Sentinel lymph node biopsy for melanoma
The American Journal of Surgery, 1998The most powerful predictor of survival for patients with melanoma is the status of the regional lymph nodes. Sentinel lymph node biopsy may provide improved staging accuracy without the morbidity of elective lymph node dissection (ELND).Sixty-eight patients with intermediate thickness melanoma underwent gamma probe guided sentinel node biopsy without ...

Repeat Operative Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy
Clinical Breast Cancer, 2006Because sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy continues to be used for staging in patients with breast cancer, physicians treating these patients will be faced with in-breast recurrences and new primary breast cancers in the treated breast. Repeat operative SLN biopsy might be feasible in this clinical scenario.

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Melanoma
The Cancer Journal, 2012The technique of lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy for melanoma has emerged during the last 2 decades as a minimally invasive approach to evaluate regional lymph node basins in patients with intermediate- and high-risk primary cutaneous melanoma and has changed our approach to the clinically negative lymph node basin in melanoma ...
