Sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast neoplasms

open access: yesVojnosanitetski pregled, 2009
Background/Aim. Sentinel node (SN) is the first draining node from the malignant tumor site. In the last decade, sentinel node biopsy (SNB) has been introduced as an alternative to axillary dissection in breast cancer. In patients with negative SNB (sentinel node uninvolved with malignancy) axillary dissection is not recommended.

Indocyanine green fluorescence‐guided sentinel lymph node biopsy: A systematic review

open access: yesWorld Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Accurate staging of cervical lymph nodes is crucial in the management of head and neck cancers (HNCs). Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) offers a minimally invasive alternative to neck dissection for identifying occult metastases. This review aims to assess the feasibility and effectiveness of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence ...

Comparison of peritumoral and subareolar injection of Tc99m sulphur colloid and blue-dye for detection of the sentinel lymph node in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
BACKGROUND: The new trend in diagnosis of the lymph node is sentinel node biopsy. This method has become increasingly accepted as a minimally invasive alternative to routine axillary dissection.

Vitamin D Supplementation During Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer Improves Pathological Complete Response: A Prospective Randomized Clinical Trial

open access: yesWorld Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Achieving a pCR serves as a biomarker indicating enhanced overall survival for breast cancer patients undergoing NST. Vitamin D enhances antitumor effect of chemotherapeutics as demonstrated in cancer cells and animal models. In this prospective randomized clinical study, we aim to investigate the effect of oral vitamin D supplementation during ...

Still Debating Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy?

open access: yesDermatology Online Journal, 2001
Controversy still surrounds the recommendation for performing sentinel node biopsy (SLNB) in patients with primary melanoma 1mm or greater in thickness, but why? In the absence of widespread, metastatic disease, nodal status is the single most important prognostic factor which determines likelihood of survival.

Predictors of Dermal Invasion and Sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis in Patients With Extramammary Paget's Disease Without Clinical Lymph Node Enlargement

open access: yesThe Journal of Dermatology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has prognostic value in extramammary Paget's disease (EMPD) without lymph node enlargement; however, its therapeutic value is unknown. The likelihood of sentinel lymph node metastasis is extremely low, especially when the primary tumor is an intraepidermal lesion; therefore, sentinel node biopsy should not be ...

Consecutive Case Series of Melanoma Sentinel Node Biopsy for Lymphoseek Compared to Sulfur Colloids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Introduction: Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is an important adjunct in the staging of patients with melanoma. Preoperative lymphoscintigraphy (LS) with radiolabeled isotopes is essential to localize sentinel nodes for removal.

The Demographics and Outcomes of Women With Stage II Endometrial Cancer Diagnosed in Australia 2005–2007

open access: yesAustralian and New Zealand Journal of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Stage II endometrial cancer comprises 5% to 10% of cases and is pathologically diverse. Retrospective data guides recommendations which suggest surgical staging with adjuvant therapy, but the role of radical surgery and lymphadenectomy is uncertain, due to conflicting outcomes.

Sentinel Node Mapping for Breast Cancer: Current Situation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Axillary node status is a major prognostic factor in early-stage disease. Traditional staging needs levels I and II axillary lymph node dissection. Axillary involvement is found in 10%–30% of patients with T1 (
