Sentinel Node and Endometrial Cancer

NCT00987051 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 133

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relevance of sentinel node in endometrial cancer. Sentinel node is thought to reflect the status of lymph node. Only 10 to 20% of women with endometrial cancer exhibit lymph node metastasis hence systematic lymphadenectomy is questionable. In breast cancer, melanoma and vulvar cancer, sentinel node has emerged as an alternative to complete lymphadenectomy.
