Transcutaneous sentinel lymph node detection in skin melanoma with near-infrared fluorescence imaging using indocyanine green.
The aim of the study is to assess whether indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence can replace technetium in the preoperative detection of sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) from cutaneous melanoma. The current golden standard for SLN detection is the radioisotope technetium. A promising alternative is fluorescence imaging (FLI) using ICG. In this study, we enrolled patients undergoing sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for skin melanoma at the Erasmus Medical Center between November 2022 and July 2023. The SLNB procedure was performed as a standard of care. After general anesthesia, ICG was injected intradermally around the primary tumor site. Both the patient and the surgeon were not blinded for the location of the SLN. FLI was performed before incision, in vivo after incision, and ex vivo. Fluorescent SLNs were confirmed using the gamma probe in all cases. Thirty-two patients were included in this study, and a total of 39 SLNs were harvested. The transcutaneous detection rate of ICG was 21.9%. The combined ex vivo ICG fluorescence and technetium uptake was 94.9%. One SLN contained only ICG (2.6%) and one SLN contained only technetium-uptake (2.6%). FLI using ICG resulted in a relatively low transcutaneous detection, which means that exclusive use of this technique in its present form is not feasible. However, we did find a high accumulation of ICG in the SLN, indicating the potential of ICG in combination with other imaging techniques.
期刊介绍:
Melanoma Research is a well established international forum for the dissemination of new findings relating to melanoma. The aim of the Journal is to promote the level of informational exchange between those engaged in the field. Melanoma Research aims to encourage an informed and balanced view of experimental and clinical research and extend and stimulate communication and exchange of knowledge between investigators with differing areas of expertise. This will foster the development of translational research. The reporting of new clinical results and the effect and toxicity of new therapeutic agents and immunotherapy will be given emphasis by rapid publication of Short Communications. Thus, Melanoma Research seeks to present a coherent and up-to-date account of all aspects of investigations pertinent to melanoma. Consequently the scope of the Journal is broad, embracing the entire range of studies from fundamental and applied research in such subject areas as genetics, molecular biology, biochemistry, cell biology, photobiology, pathology, immunology, and advances in clinical oncology influencing the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of melanoma.
