Core Tip	In a specific population of women with vulvar cancer, sentinel lymph node (SLN) dissection is an effective and safe alternative to complete dissection. It can be offered as an alternative management strategy in these women. In women who do undergo, SLN biopsy is associated with improved quality of life as well. Promising evidence supporting the utility of SLN dissection in endometrial and cervical cancer continues to emerge, and it may soon become a reasonable option for select patients. However, continued research and refinement of appropriate patient selection and long-term follow-up are necessary.
