Implication

Prospective analysis reports effective sentinel lymph node mapping using methylene blue in endometrial cancer cases, suggesting its utility where indocyanine green is unavailable.

Key Points

Overall detection rate was 75%, with a bilateral detection rate of 48%, indicating effective mapping techniques.
Nodal metastases were confirmed in 31% of patients, highlighting the relevance of detecting nodal status in endometrial cancer.
Sensitivity reached 86% with a side-specific completion algorithm, demonstrating improved accuracy in nodal staging.
No mapping-related complications were noted, suggesting the safety of sentinel lymph node mapping in this context.
