Sentinel node navigation surgery (SNNS) for lung caner has not yet been established. Sentinel node (SN) identification using dye or radioisotope has been developed; however, the SN identification rate was less than 50% in the dye method and use of radioisotopes is strongly restricted in Japan. The novel method using a CT or MRI contrast medium are expected. A study of local immune reaction for lung cancer in SN is also a very interesting issue. |
