PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The most common surgical procedure associated with lymphedema formation is the regional lymphadenectomy. One of the advantages of sentinel node biopsy is the reduction of the risk of lymphedema formation. The purpose of this review is to collect and analyze the most relevant and recent evidence of the use of sentinel node biopsy and its implication on the development of postoperative lymphedema in gynecological cancer.
RECENT FINDINGS: The current evidence of the use of sentinel node biopsy in cervical cancer to reduce lymphedema is heterogeneous and more data is needed to establish its role.Sentinel lymph node biopsy in endometrial cancer is a staging procedure with lower surgical complications, as well as lymphedema formation; while the results of prospective trials evaluating its impact on quality of life are still lacking.Sentinel lymph node biopsy in vulvar cancer minimizes the need for extensive dissection and reduces the incidence of complications associated with overharvesting of lymph nodes such as lymphedema without compromising oncological outcomes.
SUMMARY: The prevalence of lymphedema in gynecological cancer varies based on the surgical treatment or additional therapies applied. Over the past years, one of the most important surgical modifications to decrease lymphedema formation has been implementation of sentinel lymph node technique mainly in vulvar cancer patients.
