Is the Pressure from Blue Dye Cervical Injection Associated with Sentinel Lymph Node Detection in Laparoscopic Surgery for Endometrial Cancer?
Introduction Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been proven to be a safe procedure in the treatment of endometrial cancer, and the instillment of a dye/marker in the cervix is the most used technique. Various studies have correlated the body mass index (BMI) impact as well as menopausa...

Summary: | Introduction Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) has been proven to be a safe procedure in the treatment of endometrial cancer, and the instillment of a dye/marker in the cervix is the most used technique. Various studies have correlated the body mass index (BMI) impact as well as menopausal status and staging with the rate of lymph node detection, but few studies have evaluated if the high density of the cervix decreases detection. |
