| Core Tip |
Sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy is redefining nodal staging in gynecologic oncology by reducing surgical morbidity without compromising oncologic outcomes. Evidence supports its use in early-stage cervical and endometrial cancers, with high diagnostic accuracy and survival equivalence to full lymphadenectomy in selected patients. However, technical variability, learning curves, and inconsistent global adoption remain barriers. As micrometastatic disease increasingly influences adjuvant treatment decisions, the challenge is no longer proof of concept, but whether health systems are ready to implement SLN biopsy as routine standard care. |
