Sentinel Node Mapping in Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Using an Intraoperative Radiotracer Technique [PDF]

Asia Oceania Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Biology, 2019
Objective(s): Lymph node metastases are the most significant prognostic factor in localized non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Identification of the first nodal drainage site (sentinel node) may improve detection of metastatic nodes. Extended surgeries,

Concordance between Axillary Ultrasound and Sentinel Biopsy in Clinically Node-Negative Early Breast Cancer

Pakistan Armed Forces Medical Journal, 2023
Objective: To determine the sensitivity of axillary ultrasound in detecting axillary nodal metastasis in clinically and radiologically uninvolved axillary nodes in early carcinoma breast by comparing with sentinel node biopsy histopathology on frozen ...

How does the mitotic index impact patients with T1 melanoma? Comparison between the 7th and 8th edition of the American Joint Committee on Cancer melanoma staging system, [PDF]

Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2020
Background: The mitotic index is no longer used to classify T1 melanoma patients into T1a and T1b, so it should not be used to indicate sentinel node biopsy in these patients.

Lymphoscintigraphy and Sentinel Nodes [PDF]

Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 2015
It has been validated that sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) shows whether a patient's breast cancer or melanoma has spread to regional lymph nodes. As a result, management of patients with these cancers has been revolutionized. SLNB has replaced axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) as the staging modality of choice for early breast cancer and has ...

Sentinel Lymph Node Status is a Main Prognostic Parameter Needful for the Correct Staging of Patients with Melanoma Thicker than 4 mm: Single-Institution Experience and Literature Meta-Analysis

Journal of Investigative Surgery, 2019
Purpose of the study: The usefulness of sentinel lymph node biopsy in thick melanomas is debated. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible prognostic significance of sentinel lymph node biopsy in T4 melanoma patients and to verify whether this ...

Characteristics of systematic lymph node dissection and influencing factors of sentinel lymph node biopsy using carbon nanoparticles in endometrial carcinoma: a single-center study

World Journal of Surgical Oncology, 2023
Background Carbon nanoparticles (CNPs) are a new tracer for lymph node mapping, which can quickly reach and develop lymph nodes through a lymphatic network.

Efficacy of Methylene Blue in Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy for Early Breast Cancer

European Journal of Breast Health, 2014
Objective:Sentinel lymph node biopsy is the recommended approach in the evaluation of axilla during breast cancer surgery. In this study, results of patients who underwent methylene blue sentinel lymph node biopsy were evaluated.Materials and Methods:The

Use of Indocyanine Green for Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy: Case Series and Methods Comparison

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open, 2017
Introduction:. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is indicated for patients with biopsy-proven thickness melanoma greater than 1.0 mm. Use of lymphoscintigraphy along with vital blue dyes is the gold standard for identifying sentinel lymph nodes intraoperatively.

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.
