Sentinel lymph node biopsy in clinically node-negative neck patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity: a 33-year experience at a teaching hospital
On the treatment of squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity, there is still controversy about the most effective approach for clinically node-negative necks. Currently, the treatment of choice is elective neck dissection followed by histopathological examination for staging. However, the sentine...

| description | On the treatment of squamous cell carcinomas of the oral cavity, there is still controversy about the most effective approach for clinically node-negative necks. Currently, the treatment of choice is elective neck dissection followed by histopathological examination for staging. However, the sentinel lymph node biopsy technique proved to be a promising alternative, generating less harm to the patient and being less expensive. Further follow-up is still required to achieve conclusive results and for the method to become a treatment of choice. In this study, we analyzed overall and disease-free survival in patients with squamous cell carcinoma in the oral cavity and with clinically node-negative neck who underwent sentinel lymph node biopsy at our hospital from 1980 to 2013; and we related the survival rates to the presence or absence of tumor relapses. For that, a data survey of the medical records was done, whose results are being submitted to statistical analysis, to be further compared to the medical literature data. |
