Gynaecological malignancies and sentinel lymph node mapping: an update

Abstract: Assessment of pelvic, para‐aortic or inguinal lymph nodes (LNs) provides not only important prognostic information, but also determines the need for adjuvant treatment. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy has the potential to provide this prognostic information, while reducing morbidity compared with extended LN dissection. This review discusses the clinical and pathological aspects of SLN biopsy in gynaecological cancer.

“…The unstained slide from the first wide interval is submitted for pankeratin staining when the five H&E slides fail to demonstrate a metastasis. Of note, in the setting of melanoma, an immunohistochemical study consisting of a cocktail of melanoma markers (typically HMB-45, tyrosinase, MART-1) is used to evaluate sentinel lymph nodes negative by H&E staining 17. This protocol is depicted in Figure 2.…”

“…With respect to vulvovaginal melanoma, experience is limited due to the rarity of the disease. However, most recommendations regarding sentinel lymph nodes in this setting apply the guidelines for melanomas arising at other sites, with sentinel lymph node mapping recommended for the following patients: T1a melanoma if other adverse features are present; T1b melanoma (<0.8 mm with ulceration or 0.8–1.0 mm with or without ulceration); and in select patients with tumor >1 mm in thickness (≥T2 a) 17…”

“…0,3 cm Größe komplett eingebettet und größere Lymphknoten parallel zu ihrer kurzen Achse in ca. 0,2 cm dicke Scheiben lamelliert und ebenfalls komplett eingebettet werden [13,18,27,30]. Bei makroskopisch befallenen Lymphknoten ist die Einbettung einer repräsentativen Probe ausreichend.…”

“…Zur histopathologischen Untersuchung von Sentinel-Lymphknoten gynäkologischer Malignome gibt es derzeit kein einheitliches Protokoll [8,9,13,17,30]. Konsens besteht dahingehend, dass in jedem Fall ein Ultrastaging erfolgen soll [13,17,30]. Der Einsatz der Sentinel-Lymphknotentechnik beim Ovarialkarzinom steht derzeit am Anfang [10].…”
