Summary

This is an obstervationnal study, to evaluate the good clinical practice of the use of the sentinel node biospy in early stage endometrial cancer. The collaborating centres with the OncoGynecology board of the King Albert II Institute of the Clinique Universitaire Saint-Luc will also particpate to the trial.

Sentinel node biospy is not yet validated for endometrial cancer, even if lots of leading team in the world published very good result and that the first prospectives trials are already published with also excellents results. The investigators decided then to include this practice in their institutional guideslines and also to registred the procedure.

Conditions

  • Cancer of Endometrium

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy

First, the detection of the sentinel node will be preformed at the beginning of the surgery. Differents detection methods are use and the efficacy of each will be recorded. Second, dissection and extraction of the sentinel node will be performed, to send it to the frozen section examination. Third, other lymph node could be removed if the surgeon evaluate that it is feasible and necessary. In this group, the false negative rate will be also evaluate.
