1977年Cabanas[1]在阴茎癌阴茎背侧进行淋巴造影时描述了1种识别引流淋巴结的技术,证明引流原发肿瘤的第1个淋巴结是最有可能发生转移的淋巴结,被称为前哨淋巴结(sen-tinel lymph node,SLN)。理论上,前哨淋巴结最早发生肿瘤转移,检测和评估前哨淋巴结对恶性肿瘤的外科处理具有 In 1977 Cabanas [1] performed lymphatic imaging on the dorsal penis of the penile cancer, describing a technique for identifying the draining lymph nodes. It was demonstrated that the first node draining the primary tumor is the lymph node most likely to metastasize and is called the sentinel lymph node (sen-tinel lymph node, SLN). Theoretically, the earliest metastasis of sentinel lymph nodes, the detection and evaluation of surgical treatment of sentinel lymph nodes for malignant tumors have
