“…Complete lymph node dissection is associated with a high morbidity rate: In recently published studies, 59% to 68% of patients suffered from seroma and 23% from lymphedema after the procedure. 16,17 To avoid unnecessary harm to the patient, we would therefore recommend not to perform a complete lymph node dissection in the first instance after observation of a suspicious lesion on imaging without confirming the clinical diagnosis histologically, e.g. by wire-marked excision, as is already practiced in oncologic gynecology.…”

“…Especially patients under or after ICB treatment may have abiding immunologic reactions in lymph nodes, which may persist even after termination of the treatment, and which may appear quite suspicious in the ultrasound scan (Figure 4a). Complete lymph node dissection is associated with a high morbidity rate: In recently published studies, 59% to 68% of patients suffered from seroma and 23% from lymphedema after the procedure 16,17 . To avoid unnecessary harm to the patient, we would therefore recommend not to perform a complete lymph node dissection in the first instance after observation of a suspicious lesion on imaging without confirming the clinical diagnosis histologically, e.g.…”
