Zusammenfassung
Aims: Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping has been proven to be feasible in patients with primary vulvar cancer by using (99m)-Technetium (Tc), which appears to be the most promising agent for accurately identifying sentinel lymph nodes. In all of published protocols so far, injection was done at least 3hrs before surgery as a second intervention, which makes this approach inconvenient for the patient. In this study we assessed the feasibility, safety, and accuracy of an intraoperative mapping using unfiltered particles of 99m-Tc nanocolloid. Methods and Patients: Patients with a histologically confirmed vulvar ca…
