Blue dye single labelling for colorimetric sentinel lymph node mapping in early endometrial cancer: A feasibility study

BackgroundSurgical staging in endometrial cancer includes a systematic lymphadenectomy with significant morbidity, although its therapeutic role is unclear. Sentinel lymph node (SLN) study is a less morbid alternative to identify nodes most likely to be metastatic, permitting selective removal and thus reducing morbidity without compromising oncological safety. This study was done using blue dye single labelling to study the feasibility and utility in identifying SLN in early disease.MethodsTwenty-two patients of early-stage low-risk disease during surgical staging underwent cervical injection of methylene blue, SLN mapping, and sampling as per the standard algorithm, followed by a systematic lymphadenectomy in all cases. SLN were submitted separately for ultrastaging (US).ResultsTwenty patients underwent the procedure, and SLN could be identified in 18 patients with an overall mapping rate of 90% with a bilateral mapping rate of 70%, and a negative mapping rate of 10%. 57 SLN were identified along with two suspicious non-sentinel nodes and 11 were metastatic on US with a sensitivity of 66.7% and NPV of 87.5%. All patients with metastatic nodes, however, could be identified by applying the standard SLN algorithm for sampling.ConclusionSLN mapping algorithm with blue dye single labelling in early endometrial cancer, by identifying LN most likely to be metastatic enabling their selective removal may help avoid routine lymphadenectomies without compromising oncological safety. The procedure is simple and can be practiced at all centres and can also aid pathologists by pinpointing the likely metastatic nodes after a selective or complete lymphadenectomy.

Falsely elevated intraocular pressure due to increased central corneal thickness

· Purpose: To evaluate whether ocular hypertensive subjects have a higher central corneal thickness than other individuals. · Methods: In this prospective study, 48 subjects with ocular hypertension, 63 patients with open-angle glaucoma, 56 nonglaucomatous patients with diabetes mellitus, and 106 control subjects were evaluated. Corneal thickness was measured by ultrasound pachymetry, and intraocular pressure was determined by Goldmann applanation tonometry. · Results: Central corneal thickness was significantly higher in the ocular hypertensive subjects, mean ±S.D., 592±39 μm, than in the patients with glaucoma (536±34 μm), the nonglaucomatous patients with diabetes mellitus (550±31 μm), and the normal subjects (545±33 μm), P<0.001. The three latter groups did not vary significantly in central corneal thickness, P>0.05. · Conclusion: In some individuals with increased transcorneal measurements of intraocular pressure, the cornea is thicker than in subjects with normal intraocular pressure readings or patients with glaucoma. It suggests that in ocular hypertensive subjects, corneal pachymetry should be performed to rule out an abnormally thick cornea as a reason for falsely high measurements of intraocular pressure.

Novel imaging techniques for diabetic macular edema

Retinal edema should be defined as any increase of water of the retinal tissue resulting in an increase in its volume. It may be of cytotoxic or vasogenic origin. Development of vasogenic macular edema is dependent on a series of factors such as blood pressure, blood-retinal barrier permeability, retinal cell damage, retinal tissue osmotic pressure and retinal tissue compliance. Objective measurements of retinal thickness are now possible using the Retinal Thickness Analyser. Localised measurements of blood-retinal barrier permeability may also be obtained using the Retinal Leakage Analyser, a modified confocal scanning laser fluorometer, while obtaining simultaneously angiographic images of the choroid and retina. These new imaging techniques show that cytotoxic and vasogenic retinal edema may occur independently in the early stages of diabetic retinopathy. These findings offer new perpectives for designing novel therapeutic strategies. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
