The Concept of Sentinel Lymph Nodes
In current oncology, surgery no longer refers solely to the excision of the primary tumor with safety margins, but also to the removal of the lymphatic drainage structures of tumors, known as sentinel lymph nodes. The lymphatic drainage of tumors can vary from patient to patient, even if the primary tumor is located in the same anatomical region. The first thing to understand when discussing sentinel lymph node excision in oncological surgery is that regional lymph nodes are not the same as sentinel lymph nodes, and the identification of sentinel lymph nodes can only be accurately performed using contrast agents or identification markers.
Routine identification and excision of sentinel lymph nodes in neoplasms are essential steps in staging, prognosis, and determining the type of adjuvant therapy. In recent decades, radical lymphadenectomy has represented the standard approach and was considered the most suitable treatment for neoplastic disease despite the potential morbidity associated (such as lymphedema and nerve/vascular injuries). Recently, advanced screening techniques and technologies applied in medicine have led to the early diagnosis of neoplastic lesions discovered at stages without lymph node metastases. Currently, curative oncological surgery no longer requires excessive regional lymphatic clearance through radical lymphadenectomy. The sentinel lymph node mapping technique was developed to allow for precise nodal staging without causing the comorbidities associated with regional lymphadenectomy.
