Summary

This study explores the feasibility of sentinel lymph node identification in pharynx and larynx cancers using flexible endoscopy-guided tracer injection.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Radioactive tracer injection via flexible endoscopy and SPECT scan for visualization of lymph nodes.

Flexible endoscopy will be performed by one of two experienced head and neck surgeons. Inspection of larynx and pharynx will be performed to determine the extensions of the tumor in all directions. After local anesthesia, 2-4 peritumoral injections of Tc-99m-nanocolloïd will be given. Ten minutes after injection of Tc-99m-nanocolloïd a SPECT scan will be performed.
