Disease relevance of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

PURPOSE: We report on the morbidity of dynamic sentinel lymph node biopsy (DSNB) in penile squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) [1].
Concordance and validation study of sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer using subareolar injection of blue dye and technetium 99m sulfur colloid [2].
METHODS: Forty-eight patients with colon cancer underwent lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node biopsy using isosulfan blue dye followed by standard surgical resection [3].
METHODS: From August 1999 to January 2002, 27 gastric cancer patients underwent lymphatic mapping and sentinel lymph node biopsy using isosulfan blue dye [4].
Anaphylactic reaction to patent blue V after sentinel lymph node biopsy [5].

High impact information on Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed by injection of technetium sulfur colloid plus isosulfan blue dye in 99% of cases [6].
INTERVENTIONS: Sentinel lymph node biopsy using methylene blue (16 patients) and isosulfan blue (16 patients); there was also a control group of 6 surgical patients in whom dyes were not used [7].
BACKGROUND: Although sentinel lymph node biopsy (SNLB) has become a standard ancillary to breast conservation, there remains a hesitancy to perform SLNB concomitant with mastectomy primarily because of concerns regarding reoperation for a positive SLN [8].
Sentinel lymph node biopsy was performed using both isosulfan blue dye and technetium-99m sulfur colloid [9].
The use of cytokeratin staining in sentinel lymph node biopsy for breast cancer [10].

Chemical compound and disease context of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

HYPOTHESIS: There are differences between readings of peripheral blood oxygen saturation when the effect on saturation values of methylene blue is compared with that of isosulfan blue when used in sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with breast cancer [7].
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the performance and feasibility of sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast cancer patients using technetium-99m (99mTc) sulphur colloid and gamma probe [11].
The goal of this study was to evaluate the clinical usefulness of axillary lymph node (ALN) staging by means of positron emission tomography (PET) with 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) in breast cancer patients qualifying for sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) [12].

Biological context of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Although the sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure and reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction techniques have significantly improved the staging of patients with melanoma, new molecular prognostic markers may help in selection of appropriate patients for strenuous adjuvant therapies and for randomized clinical trials [13].

Anatomical context of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Patent blue V is a well-known dye for visualisation of the lymph nodes in a sentinel lymph node biopsy in breast carcinoma [14].

Associations of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy with chemical compounds

These results suggest sentinel lymph node biopsy using peritumoral isosulfan blue injection method alone can accurately predict axillary status in patients with clinically negative nodes, but patients with multi-focal disease and large tumor size may not be ideal candidates [15].
METHODS: Twenty patients were injected with 0.7 to 1.1 mCi of Tc99m sulfur colloid 1.5 to 3 hours before sentinel lymph node biopsy [16].
Phytate technetium-99m versus dextran 500 technetium-99m in the sentinel lymph node biopsy [17].

Gene context of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

We examined the feasibility of sentinel lymph node biopsy for thyroid cancer [18].
Re: Accuracy of sentinel lymph node biopsy for patients with T2 and T3 breast cancers [19].

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

Lymphoscintigraphies were done after peritumoral injections of 99mTc labelled rheniumsulphide nanocolloid, followed by sentinel lymph node biopsy guided by a gamma probe and Patent Blue. Palpation, Doppler ultrasonography, MRI, and sentinel lymph node biopsy were compared to a combination of histopathology and follow-up [20].
