Value and Outcomes of Robot-Assisted Sentinel LymphNode Dissection for Endometrial Cancer

Dr. Walter Gotlieb, Professor of Oncology and Ob-Gyn, Director of Surgical Oncology at the Jewish General Hospital, McGill University, Montreal Canada reveals the findings of his study of surgical dyes in Sentinel Lymph Node Dissection for Endometrial Cancer. Regarding the differences in detection methods used in Europe, the U.S. and Canada, he remarks: “In 4 cases, the sentinel node was the only positive node. So you could have done a big lymph node dissection, and if your Pathologist didn’t analyze that specific lymph node well- you would have missed it.” Lecture with PowerPoints , videos and X-ray images followed by 5-minutes Q & A. 21:41
