Since the introduction of sentinel node biopsy in 1990 as a minimally invasive surgical technique for the diagnosis of melanoma lymphatic metastases, the number of applications has expanded. We review applications and the current status of sentinel node biopsy in melanoma, breast, colon, gastric, esophageal, head and neck, thyroid, and lung cancer. Variations on techniques specific to each orga...
Background: Sentinel lymph node biopsy in early breast cancer performed by intraparenchymal or intradermal injection of blue dye and/or radioactive colloid remains a highly acceptable method of identifying sentinel nodes largely because of its success rate. Aim: 1. To assess the efficacy of sentinel lymph node biopsy in detecting axillary metastases in cases of node negative early breast cancer...
Editor—Kell and Kerin wrote about sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer and melanoma. This is a staging procedure with a well established role in breast cancer, reducing the need for dissection of the axillary node. The indications and advantages for sentinel lymph node biopsy in melanoma are not confirmed, and it is certainly not the established treatment implied in the editorial. Sentin...
Background: Sentinel node biopsy (SLNB) is the standard of care for breast cancer treatment and it is getting wide acceptance in Iran. The radiation safety of the procedure has been investigated under controlled conditions, but the standard dose of radiotracer and techniques are not always observed in the community setting. The aim of this study was to assess the magnitude of the absor...
Comparison of sentinel gamma probes for 99mTc breast cancer surgery based on NEMA NU3-2004 standard.
PURPOSE Hand-held gamma-probes are used for the identification of the sentinel node location during intra-operative radio-guided surgeries. Various gamma-probes, which use different detectors, collimation and electronics, are available on the market. Spatial resolution, sensitivity and angular resolution of the probes are believed to be determinant for the success of the identification of the s...
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is based on the hypothesis that the sentinel lymph node (SLN) reflects the lymph-node status and a negative SLN might allow complete axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) to be avoided. Past and current sentinel lymph node clinical trials for breast carcinoma have addressed the prognostic and therapeutic benefits of this technique and as such, SLNB has become a...
As lymph node metastasis is one of the earliest features of tumour cell spread in most human cancers, assessment of the regional lymph nodes is required for tumour staging, determining prognosis and planning adjuvant therapeutic strategies. However, complete lymph node dissections are frequently associated with significant complications. Conjugating the diagnostic advantages with decreased morb...
BACKGROUND In the staging of endometrial cancer, controversy remains regarding the role of sentinel lymph node mapping compared with other nodal assessment strategies. OBJECTIVE We conducted a systematic review to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy and clinical impact of sentinel lymph node mapping in the management of endometrial cancer. DATA SOURCES We searched Medline, Embase, and the Coch...
OBJECTIVES Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been introduced for head and neck cancer with promising results. Research in breast cancer has revealed different histopathological features of occult lymph node metastasis with possibly different clinical and prognostic implications. The aim of the study was to evaluate the histopathological features of occult metastasis detected by sentinel lymph node...
To determine the performance of intraoperative one-step nucleic acid amplification (OSNA) assay in detecting sentinel lymph node metastases compared to postoperative histology taking into account breast cancer molecular classification and to evaluate whether the level of cytokeratin 19 mRNA copy number may be useful in predicting the likelihood of a positive axillary lymph node dissection. OSNA...
