Sentinel lymphnode for endometrial cancer: where are we?
Endometrial cancer (EC) is the most common cancer of all gynecological malignancies. Most women are diagnosed with an earlystage disease, which generally has a good prognosis. Lymph node dissection represents a cornerstone not only for staging but also for treatment of EC. In recent years a novel te...
