Sentinel node biopsy in melanoma

Virchows Archiv, 2001
There has, for a long time, been an ongoing discussion on whether the prophylactic removal of lymph nodes ("elective lymph node dissection") is of benefit for melanoma patients. More recently, "selective" lymphadenectomy ("sentinel node biopsy", SNB) has been proposed to evaluate the status of the first draining lymph node ("sentinel node") of the ...

The Concept of the Sentinel Lymph Node

2000
Lymphangiograms performed via direct cannulation of lymphatic ducts demonstrate drainage of the lymph into a specific lymph node center, the so-called SLN. Contrast materials such as lipiodol, injected directly into the tissue (e.g., tongue) can demonstrate the SLN.
