Overview

Distinct sentinel lymph node marking is an objective pursued by surgeons tackling the issue of removal of lymph node metastases. Meeting this objective continues to be a challenge in the case of prostate metastases. Lymph from the prostate drains in 3 directions, into 2 groups of lymph nodes in the pelvis, i.e. nodi lymphatici iliaci interni (nodi lymphatici obturatorii, nodi lymphatici sacrales), nodi lymphatici iliaci externi.

KEY WORDS:
nodi lymphatici iliaci interni, nodi lymphatici iliaci externi, prostate, prostate sentinel lymph node
