Desmoplastic melanoma: is there a role for sentinel lymph node biopsy?

abstract：INTRODUCTION:Obesity adds to the technical difficulty of colorectal surgery and is a risk factor for postoperative complications. We hypothesized that obese patients have increased morbidity and poor oncologic outcomes after proctectomy for rectal adenocarcinoma. METHODS:Adult patients undergoing total mesorectal exci...

abstract：BACKGROUND:Identification of the sentinel node (SN) in patients with breast cancer is done by tracking a radioactive tracer, a vital dye, or both, as the marker(s) reach the axilla. Replacing this method with ultrasonographic (US) recognition of the SN could eventually spare patients the need for systemic anesthesia, p...
