Manual Lymphatic Drainage after Subepidermal Tracer Injection Optimizes Results of Sentinel Lymph Node Labeling in Primary Breast Cancer.
INTRODUCTION Our aim was to assess the practicability and reliability of a novel labeling regime for axillary sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) in early breast cancer. METHODS 362 patients with early breast cancer (bilateral in 9 cases, giving a total of 371 cases) underwent intradermal radio tracer injection with simultaneous manual lymphatic drainage. SLN biopsy was performed within 24 h. For ret...
متن کاملSentinel lymph node in cervical cancer
Background: Cervical cancer is the second most common type of cancer among women. Effective screening programs can help cancer detection in early phases and reduce death. Metastasis to lymph nodes is one of the most prognostic factors in patients who underwent surgery. Also, a positive result from pathology report alert oncologist as a cause of death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been widely ...
متن کاملValidation study for the hypothesis of internal mammary sentinel lymph node lymphatic drainage in breast cancer
According to axilla sentinel lymph node lymphatic drainage pattern, we hypothesized that internal mammary sentinel lymph node (IM-SLN) receives lymphatic drainage from not only the primary tumor area, but also the entire breast parenchyma. Based on the hypothesis a modified radiotracer injection technique was established and could increase the visualization rate of the IM-SLN significantly. To ...
متن کاملPrecise intraoperative sentinel lymph node biopsies guided by lymphatic drainage in breast cancer
The purpose of this study was to present a novel surgical method for intraoperative precise sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) and to determine its clinical efficacy and sensitivity in breast cancer patients. The sentinel lymph nodes (SLNs) were preoperatively evaluated by axillary ultrasound. The intraoperative detection of SLNs was guided by lymphatic drainage pathway. The lymphatic vessels an...
متن کاملRelieving the pain of sentinel lymph node biopsy tracer injection.
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been reliably accurate as a minimally invasive surgical alternative for identifying lymphatic breast metastasis. During mapping, the injection of a radioactive tracer or isosulfan blue dye to differentiate the SLN is acutely painful. The use of the eutectic mixture of lidocaine and prilocaine (EMLA) cream to reduce tracer injection pain has been reported an...
