Impact of SLN biopsy vs Lymphadenectomy in Endometrial Cancer with Dimitrios Nasioudis

In this episode of the IJGC podcast, Editor-in-Chief Dr. Pedro Ramirez is joined by Dr. Dimitrios Nasioudis to discuss the impact of SLN biopsy versus lymphadenectomy in endometrial cancer. Dr. Nasioudis is a resident at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia. His current interests include population science and outcomes research with an emphasis on rare gynecologic tumors. Dimitrios Nasioudis (@Dnasioudis / @PennMedicine) Highlights: - Sentinel lymph node biopsy has been established as a minimalistic approach to endometrial cancer staging, with excellent diagnostic accuracy. - Data on the long-term oncologic and patient reported outcomes are greatly warranted. - For patients with stage IIIC endometrial cancer, based on a large dataset, overall survival was comparable between the sentinel lymph node biopsy alone and systematic lymphadenectomy groups.
