Retrospective cohort study compares sentinel lymph node mapping methods in endometrial cancer, indicating no significant performance difference.

Key Points

This study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of indocyanine green sentinel lymph node mapping between two surgical approaches in early-stage endometrial cancer.
Retrospective analysis of consecutive patients undergoing minimally invasive surgery with sentinel lymph node mapping.
Intracervical indocyanine green injection performed per a standardized protocol; additional procedures for persistent mapping failure included reinjection and pelvic lymphadenectomy.
Statistical analyses included multivariable logistic regression for mapping success and adjusted median regression for hospital stay.
No statistically significant difference in sentinel lymph node mapping performance was found between laparoscopic and robot-assisted surgery.
Robot-assisted surgery resulted in a shorter length of hospital stay compared to conventional laparoscopy.
