Objective:To explore the feasibility and clinical value of sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy through cervix-uterine combined two-step injection with two tracers in patients with early stage endometrial cancer.Methods:From July 2019 to April 2021, a total of 73 patients, aged (54.2±3.3) year, who were preoperatively diagnosed as stage Ⅰ-Ⅱ endometrial cancer (including 56 low-risk patients and 17 medium-high risk patients) in Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University were selected. According to the different sites of tracer injection, the patients were randomly divided into three groups: cervical injection group (25 cases): 1 ml of nano-carbon was used to inject at 3 and 9 o'clock in the cervix; uterine injection group (21 cases): the magnetic resonance imaging examination was performed to determine the location of the lesion, and 4 ml of methylene blue was injected into the uterine body at 2 sites where the lesion was located; combined injection group (27 cases): cervical injection of nano-carbon (1 ml) combined with uterine injection of methylene blue (4 ml). The SLN in all patients were identified under laparoscopy, removed, and followed by frozen pathological examination. Pathological ultra-staging was performed if the postoperative pathological outcome of SLN was negative. The total detection rate of SLN, bilateral pelvic SLN detection rate, sensitivity, negative predictive value, and location of SLN in each group were calculated and compared.Results:(1) In 73 patients with endometrial cancer, the overall detection rate of SLN was 88% (64/73), the detection rate of bilateral pelvic SLN was 67% (49/73), and the detection rate of para-aortic SLN was 49% (36/73). The overall detection rate of SLN (71%, 15/21) and bilateral pelvic SLN (43%, 9/21) in the intrauterine injection group were significantly lower than those in the cervical injection group [92% (23/25), 76% (19/25), respectively] and the combined injection group [96% (26/27), 78% (21/27), respectively; all P<0.05]; the detection rate of para-aortic SLN in the cervical injection group (28%, 7/25) was significantly lower than those in the intrauterine injection group and combined injection group [52% (11/21) and 67% (18/27), respectively; both P<0.05]. Among 73 cases with endometrial cancer, 9 had lymph node metastasis confirmed by postoperative pathological examination, 8 of them had lymph node metastasis detected by SLN and 1 had no lymph node metastasis detected by SLN, with a total sensitivity of 89% and a negative predictive value of 98%. The sensitivity and negative predictive value of cervical injection group and combined injection group were 100%, while the sensitivity and negative predictive value of intrauterine injection group were 67% and 95%. Among 56 low-risk patients, only one patient with lymph node metastasis was confirmed by postoperative pathology by SLN detection, and the metastasis rate was 2% (1/56), and the sensitivity and negative predictive value were 100%. Lymph node metastasis was confirmed in 8 of 17 patients (8/17) with a sensitivity of 88% and a negative predictive value of 90%. (2) A total of 459 SLN were detected in 73 endometrial cancer patients, with the highest proportion of external iliac (33.3%, 153/459).The obturator foramen was 25.3% (116/459), para-aortic 19.6% (90/459), iliac 12.0% (55/459), and presacral 9.8% (45/459). The proportion of para-aortic SLN in the cervical injection group was 12.4% (21/169), which were significantly lower than that in the intrauterine injection group and the combined injection group [27.4% (26/95) and 22.1% (43/195), respectively; both P<0.05]. (3) Pathological super-staging results: among 64 patients with negative SLN routine paraffin pathology, 4 cases of lymph node micro-metastases and 1 case of isolated tumor cell metastasis were detected, and the SLN micro-metastases rate was 8% (5/64), including 2 cases of low-risk patients and 3 cases of medium-high risk patients. Conclusions:SLN biopsy has high sensitivity and negative predictive value in patients with early endometrial cancer and could be used as an alternative to systematic lymph node dissection in low-risk patients. The SLN mapping through cervical-uterine combined injection could further improve the detection rate effectively and avoid the missed detection of positive para-aortic lymph node, especially for high-risk patients or patients with fundal tumor involvement.
