Abstract:
To compare carbon nanoparticles with methylene blue for sentinel lymph nodes mapping in laparoscopic staging of early endometrial carcinoma.Forty five patients with stage I or stage Ⅱ endometrial carcinoma undergoing laparoscopic operation from January 2016 to January 2018 were randomly divided into two groups:methylene blue was applied in 20 cases and carbon nanoparticies were applied in 25 cases for sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in laparoscopic staging;and the images of two tracers were compared.The development time of nano-carbon group was shorter[(16.4±3.4) min vs.(21.0±5.9)min,t=3.26,P=0.02] and duration was longer [(73.1 ± 14.3) min vs.(54.6 ± 14.9)min,t=5.41,P=0.04] than those of methylene blue group.In lymphatic mapping,the detection rate of SLN in nano-carbon group was significantly higher than that of methylene blue group [95% (21/22)vs.5/18].For detection of metastatic SLN,the sensitivity of methylene blue group was 1/2 and that of nano-carbon group was 4/4 (x2=66.70,P<0.01).The results indicate that both methylene blue and Nano-carbon tracer can be used for SLN mapping in laparoscopic staging of early endometrial carcinoma,and nano-carbon tracer is recommended as the first choice to predict pelvic lymph node metastasis in endometrial carcinoma surgery.
