20.500.12556/DiRROS-18499 Inguinal or inguino-iliac/obturator lymph node dissection after positive inguinal sentinel lymph node in patients with cutaneous melanoma Ingvinalna ali ingvino-iliako/obturatorna disekcija po pozitivni ingvinalni varovalni bezgavki pri bolnikih s kožnim melanomom The aim of the study was to determine whether the presence of inguinal sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastases smaller than 2 mm (micrometastases) subdivided according to the number of micrometastases predicts additional, non-sentinel inguinal, iliac or obturator lymph node involvement in completion lymph node dissection (CLND). Positive inguinal SLN was detected in 58 patients (32 female, 26 male, median age 55 years) from 743 consecutive and prospectively enrolled patients with primary cutaneous melanoma stage I and II who were treated with SLN biopsy between 2001 and 2007. Micrometastases in inguinal SLN were detected in 32 patients, 14 were single, 2 were double, and 16 were multiple. Twenty-six patients had macrometastases. No patient with any micrometastases or a single SLN macrometastasis in the inguinal region had any iliac/obturator non-sentinel metastases after CLND in our series. Furthermore, no patient with single SLN micrometastasis in the inguinal region had any non-sentinel metastases at all after CLND in our series. In these cases respective CLND might be omitted. true false true Association of Radiology and Oncology Ljubljana Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik by Authors Neznano 2024-03-21 08:22:41 2024-03-21 08:22:41 2024-03-22 03:48:32 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2012 0 0 Soavtorji: Marko Hočevar, Vesna Zadnik, Marko Snoj; str. 258-264, V no. 3 Vol. 46 2012 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 0000-00-00 0000-00-00 2012-01-01 616.5-006.6-07 1318-2099 10.2478/v10019-012-0041-z 1362043 RAZ_Glumac_Nebojsa_2012.pdf RAZ_Glumac_Nebojsa_2012.pdf 1 C23B02B7EA60CCD54058481A0BDC0221 75705671092e5b67e90d0d947ccf5a6f0b64cc2f57795c525d5579607f147e27 f9a707bd-e753-11ee-9dd4-001a4af901a5 https://dirros.openscience.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=25206 Onkološki inštitut Ljubljana 0 0 0
