摘要
The author discusses an article in the current issue of Cancer that describes a laparoscopic detection method for identifying sentinel lymph nodes in women with cervical carcinoma using patent blue and radioisotope technology. The advantages and disadvantages are articulated. The possible future role of sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with cervical carcinoma is discussed.
