Development of sentinel node navigation surgery (SNNS) and advances in minimally invasive surgical techniques have greatly shaped the modern day approach to gastric cancer surgery.An extensive body of knowledge now exists on this type of clinical application but is principally composed of single institute studies.Certain dye tracers,such as isosulfan blue or patent blue violet,have been widely utilized with a notable amount of success;however,indocyanine green is gaining popularity.The double tracer method,a synchronized use of dye and radio-isotope tracers,appears to be superior to any of the dyes alone.In the meantime,the concepts of infrared ray electronic endoscopy,florescence imaging,nanoparticles and near-infrared technology are emerging as particularly promising alternative techniques.Hematoxylin and eosin staining remains the main method for the detection of sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastases.Several specialized centers have begun to employ immunohistochemical staining for this type of clinical analysis but the equipment costs involving the associated ultra-rapid processing systems is limiting its widespread application.Laparoscopic function-preserving resection of primary tumor from the stomach in conjunction with lymphatic basin dissection navigated by SLN identification represents the current paramount of SNNS for early gastric cancer.Patients with cT3 stage or higher still require standard D 2 dissection.
Development of sentinel node navigation surgery (SNNS) and advances in minimally invasive surgical techniques have greatly shaped the modern day approach to gastric cancer surgery. An extensive body of knowledge now exists on this type of clinical application but is principally composed of single institute studies. Certain dye tracers, such as isosulfan blue or patent blue violet, have been widely utilized with a not applicable amount of success; however, indocyanine green is gaining popularity. The double tracer method, a synchronized use of dye and radio-isotope tracers, appears to be superior to any of the dyes alone. In the meantime, the concepts of infrared ray electronic endoscopy, florescence imaging, nanoparticles and near-infrared technology are emerging as particularly promising alternative techniques. Hematoxylin and eosin staining remains the main method for the detection of sentinel lymph node (SLN) metastases. Comprehensive specialized centers have begun to employ immunohistochemical staining for th is type of clinical analysis but the associated costs of the associated ultra-rapid processing systems are associated with ultra-rapid processing systems that reduce its widespread application. Laparoscopic function-preserving resection of primary tumors from the stomach in conjunction with lymphatic basin dissection navigated by SLN identification represents the current paramount of SNNS for early gastric cancer. Patients with cT3 stage or higher still require standard D2 dissection.
