Core Tip The sentinel node (SN) technique has been established for the treatment of some types of malignancies to avoid over invasive surgery. However, SN navigation surgery in gastric cancer has not been yet universal due to the complicated lymphatic flow from the stomach. The results reported in the literature on SN biopsy in gastric cancer are widely divergent and many issues are still to be resolved, such as the collection method of SN, the accuracy of SN mapping, detection of micrometastasis in SN, and clinical benefit. SN mapping should be promising tool for indicating minimally invasive surgery of gastric cancer.
