Abstract
Sentinel lymph node biopsy is increasingly used to detect subclinical nodal metastases in extramammary Paget disease. We performed a comprehensive systematic review of the literature to further explore the role of sentinel lymph node biopsy in extramammary Paget disease. Five databases were searched for relevant terms. Articles were included if they were in English and presented primary data on at least one patient with extramammary Paget disease who underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy in the absence of lymphadenopathy or known metastatic disease. Twenty-eight articles were included, with 366 subjects. Seventy-seven sentinel node biopsies (21.2%) were positive, including 12 in which the primary tumor had microinvasion (15.6%) and 56 with deep invasion (72.7%). Of the positive cases, 11 (14.3%) had no further treatment, 54 (70.1%) underwent nodal dissection, 4 (5.2%) were treated with systemic agents, and 1 (1.3%) had radiation. After a mean follow up of 24 months, 9 subjects with a positive lymph node biopsy experienced nodal recurrence (11.7%), 15 had distant metastases (19.5%), and 13 died of the disease (16.9%). In conclusion, invasive extramammary Paget disease is strongly associated with poor outcomes including nodal metastasis, distant metastasis, and disease specific death. Sentinel lymph node biopsy is a useful tool to screen for subclinical nodal metastases in invasive disease, and can be used to help guide clinical management.

Abstract
Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is a form of skin cancer that can be treated using a procedure known as Mohs surgery. Mohs surgery is a safe and effective procedure for eliminating SCC. This surgery requires the usage of an analgesic known as lidocaine. Additional anesthetics were also reported to be necessary for this procedure to be conducted in a manner that significantly minimizes patient harm. According to the review, it was found that SCC was treated with lidocaine as a topical analgesic outside of Mohs surgery. This review analyzes the usage of lidocaine in the treatment of SCC. It was also discovered that lidocaine, as an agent, has the potential to slow the progression of SCC, but more research is needed to see if this is truly the case. On average, it was reported that the concentration of lidocaine used in the in vivo studies was significantly higher than that in the in vitro investigations. Further exploration may be needed to verify the conclusions that were based on the analysis of the papers within the review.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Accurately assessing axillary lymph node (ALN) status in breast cancer is vital for clinical decision making and prognosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapped by multidetector-row computed tomography lymphography (MDCT-LG) for ALN metastasis in breast cancer patients. METHODS 112 patients with breast cancer who underwent preoperative MDCT-LG examination were included in the study. Long-axis diameter, short-axis diameter, ratio of long-/short-axis and cortical thickness were measured. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate independent predictors associated with ALN metastasis. The prediction of ALN metastasis was determined with related variables of SLN using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS Among the 112 cases, 35 (30.8%) cases had ALN metastasis. The cortical thickness in metastatic ALN group was significantly thicker than that in non-metastatic ALN group (4.0 ± 1.2 mm vs. 2.4 ± 0.7 mm, P < 0.001). Multi-logistic regression analysis indicated that cortical thickness of > 3.3 mm (OR 24.53, 95% CI 6.58-91.48, P < 0.001) had higher risk for ALN metastasis. The best sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value(NPV) and AUC of MDCT-LG for ALN metastasis prediction based on the single variable of cortical thickness were 76.2%, 88.5%, 90.2% and 0.872 (95% CI 0.773-0.939, P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION ALN status can be predicted using the imaging features of SLN which was mapped on MDCT-LG in breast cancer patients. Besides, it may be helpful to select true negative lymph nodes in patients with early breast cancer, and SLN biopsy can be avoided in clinically and radiographically negative axilla.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES The purpose of this pilot study was to evaluate the usefulness of magnetic resonance lymphography (MRL) with superparamagnetic iron oxide (SPIO) in sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping of clinically N0 early oral cancer, and to conduct a comparative study of this MRL with CT lymphography (CTL). METHODS CTL and MRL were performed for SLN mapping before surgery for 20 patients with clinically N0 early oral cancer. The detection rate, number, and location of SLNs in CTL and MRL were evaluated. Furthermore, optimal scanning/imaging timing in MRL was examined. RESULTS SLNs were detected by CTL in 18 (90%) patients, and the total and mean number of SLN were 35 and 1.8, respectively. All SLNs could be detected 2 min and 3.5-5 min after contrast medium injection. In all patients, SLNs were detected by MRL at 10 min after SPIO injection, and the total and mean number of SLN was 53 and 2.7, respectively. MRL at 30 min after the injection showed additional 18 secondary lymph nodes. CONCLUSION MRL with SPIO is safe and useful imaging for the detection of SLNs in clinically N0 early oral cancer, and the optimal imaging timing is 10 min after SPIO injection.

Determining agreement between preoperative computed tomography lymphography and indocyanine green near infrared fluorescence intraoperative imaging for sentinel lymph node mapping in dogs with oral tumours. Vet Comp Oncol 2021; 19:295-303.

Abstract
Lymphatic drainage from the head and neck is variable with significant crossover, therefore sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping can help ensure the appropriate lymph node(s) are sampled. To improve sensitivity, SLN mapping utilizing multiple modalities and a combination of preoperative computed tomography lymphography (CTL) and intraoperative near infrared fluorescence imaging (NIRF) with indocyanine green (ICG) +/- methylene blue (MB) dye has been suggested. The aim of this study was to describe a method for intraoperative ICG lymphography and determine agreement for SLN detection using preoperative CTL and intraoperative ICG NIRF + MB lymphography (IOL) in dogs with oral tumours. Fourteen client-owned dogs were included. All dogs had preoperative CTL with iodinated contrast and intraoperative IOL with an exoscope. Lymph nodes with CTL contrast-enhancement, blue staining or fluorescence were considered sentinel. The overall SLN identification rate was 100% when CTL and IOL were combined. A total of 57 SLNs were identified. Indocyanine green NIRF identified a greater proportion of SLNs (91%; 52/57) compared with MB (50.8%; 29/57) and CTL (42.1%; 24/57). Eighteen SLNs were identified by all three modalities with a fair level of agreement using Fleiss kappa. These findings suggest a combination of preoperative CTL with intraoperative SLN mapping techniques may greatly improve the ability to accurately detect the SLN in dogs with oral tumours.

New Developments in Imaging for Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy in Early-Stage Oral Cavity Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Cancers (Basel) 2020; 12:cancers12103055. [PMID: 33092093 PMCID: PMC7589685 DOI: 10.3390/cancers12103055] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/11/2020] [Revised: 10/03/2020] [Accepted: 10/15/2020] [Indexed: 12/18/2022] Open
Abstract
Sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) is a diagnostic staging procedure that aims to identify the first draining lymph node(s) from the primary tumor, the sentinel lymph nodes (SLN), as their histopathological status reflects the histopathological status of the rest of the nodal basin. The routine SLNB procedure consists of peritumoral injections with a technetium-99m [99mTc]-labelled radiotracer followed by lymphoscintigraphy and SPECT-CT imaging. Based on these imaging results, the identified SLNs are marked for surgical extirpation and are subjected to histopathological assessment. The routine SLNB procedure has proven to reliably stage the clinically negative neck in early-stage oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC). However, an infamous limitation arises in situations where SLNs are located in close vicinity of the tracer injection site. In these cases, the hotspot of the injection site can hide adjacent SLNs and hamper the discrimination between tracer injection site and SLNs (shine-through phenomenon). Therefore, technical developments are needed to bring the diagnostic accuracy of SLNB for early-stage OSCC to a higher level. This review evaluates novel SLNB imaging techniques for early-stage OSCC: MR lymphography, CT lymphography, PET lymphoscintigraphy and contrast-enhanced lymphosonography. Furthermore, their reported diagnostic accuracy is described and their relative merits, disadvantages and potential applications are outlined.

Abstract
Robotic approaches and sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy are both strategies that evolved driven by the need to reduce impact of head and neck oncological surgery in terms of operative timing, morbidity, hospitalization time, and aesthetic results. A comprehensive review of the scientific literature was performed on PubMed, Embase, ResearchGate, Cochrane, and CENTRAL electronic databases with the aim to discuss the role that these two approaches can play together in the management of head and neck cancers (HNCs) of various sites. Dedicated publications on the combined robotics and SLN biopsy approaches resulted, up to now very limited, while their separated application in non-shared fields is gaining strength. However, the possibility to implement and combine technologies to minimize sequelae of head and neck surgery is an interesting and evolving topic.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to reevaluate preoperative computed tomography lymphography (CTL) and enhanced CT images during follow-up to clarify whether SLNs enhanced by CTL were identified accurately before primary surgery with sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for clinically N0 early oral cancer. METHODS Thirty two early oral cancer patients without cervical lymph node metastasis were enrolled in this study. To clarify whether SLNs enhanced by CTL were identified accurately before primary surgery with SLNB, we reevaluated preoperative CTL and enhanced CT images during follow-up in all patients. RESULTS SLNs were detected by CTL in 31 of 32 patients (96.9%). During follow-up after primary surgery with SLNB, 4 of 27 patients without SLN metastasis had occult neck metastasis. Of the 4 patients, only 1 patient with cancer of floor of the mouth had overlooking of SLN, and the overlooking rate of SLN was 3.1%. The overlooked small SLN (2.9 × 3.3 × 3.1 mm) was located at contralateral level IB. The CT numbers before, 2, 5, 10 min after iopamidol injection, were 33 HU, 37 HU, 62 HU, 52 HU, respectively. The CT numbers of overlooked SLN 5 and 10 min after the injection was higher than CT images scanned before the iopamidol injection. CONCLUSIONS The enhancement of SLNs in CTL images after iopamidol injection should be compared sufficiently with CT images before iopamidol injection to avoid overlooking of SLNs in N0 early oral cancer.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The objectives of this retrospective study were to evaluate the usefulness of computed tomography lymphography (CTL) and to clarify the optimal timing of CTL in sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping of clinically N0 early oral cancer. METHODS Twenty patients with clinically N0 early oral cancer underwent CTL with a 128 multi-detector row CT scanner to detect SLN the day before resection of primary tumor and SLN biopsy with indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence guidance. CT scanning was performed in the first 10 patients at 2, 5, and 10 min after submucosal injection of iopamidol and in the remaining 10 patients at 2, 3.5, 5, and 10 min after the injection of contrast medium. We evaluated the SLN detection rate at each scan timing and the number and location of SLNs. We evaluated whether CTL-enhanced SLNs could be identified intraoperatively as ICG fluorescent lymph nodes. RESULTS SLNs were detected by CTL in 19 of the 20 patients (95.0%), and the mean number of SLNs was 2 (range, 1-4). All SLNs were located on the ipsilateral side; 35 of 37 SLNs were located at level I and II, and 2 SLNs were lingual lymph nodes. All SLNs could be detected 2 min and 3.5-5 min after contrast medium injection, and CTL-enhanced SLNs could be identified intraoperatively as fluorescent lymph nodes. CONCLUSIONS CTL could facilitate the detection of SLNs in early oral cancer, and the optimal timing of CT scanning was at 2 and 5 min after injection of contrast medium.
