Purpose: Pre-operative nodal staging is important for planning treatment in cervical cancer (CC) and endometrial cancer (EC) but remains challenging. We compare nodal staging accuracy of 18F-ethyl-choline-(FEC)-PET/CT, 18F-Fluoro-deoxy-glucose-(FDG)-PET/CT and diffusion-weighted-MRI (DW-MRI) with conventional morphological MRI. Experimetal Design: ...

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate surgical and oncologic outcomes of patients treated by robot-assisted surgery for endometrial cancer within the Belgium Gynaecological Oncology Group (BGOG). STUDY DESIGN: We performed a retrospective analysis of women with clinically Stage I endometrial cancer who underwent surgical treatment from 2007 to 2018 in five instit...

Dynamic sentinel lymph node biopsy (DSNB) and radical inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND) are important in the management of penile cancer patients, but high-level evidence for preoperative, perioperative, and postoperative management remains scarce. According to an online survey of 35 surgeons from ten European countries, 57% perform >10 ILND pr...

INTRODUCTION: Conventional methods for axillary sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) are fraught with complications such as allergic reactions, skin tattooing, radiation, and limitations on infrastructure. A novel technique has been developed for lymphatic mapping utilizing fluorescence imaging. This meta-analysis aims to compare the gold standard blu...

BACKGROUND: SENTIX (ENGOT-CX2/CEEGOG-CX1) is an international, multicentre, prospective observational trial evaluating sentinel lymph node (SLN) biopsy without pelvic lymph node dissection in patients with early-stage cervical cancer. We report the final preplanned analysis of the secondary end-points: SLN mapping and outcomes of intraoperative SLN...

OBJECTIVE: To perform an external validation of the Cancer of the Bladder Risk Assessment (COBRA) score for estimating cancer-specific survival (CSS) after radical cystectomy (RC) in a large bi-institutional cohort of patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Patients treated with RC and lymph node dissection (LND) between May 1996 and July 2017 were retriev...

BACKGROUND The prognostic significance of lymph nodes (LNs) metastases and the optimum number of LN yield in gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumours (GEP NETs) undergoing curative resection is still debatable. Many studies have demonstrated that cure rate for patients with GEP NETs can be improved by the resection of the primary tumour and re...

OBJECTIVES: To identify predictors of poor overall survival (OS) amongst patients with penile squamous cell carcinoma (pSCC) with clinical inguinal lymphadenopathy (cN+), in order to define the best candidates for neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC). PATIENTS AND METHODS: Using an international, multicentre database of 924 patients with pSCC, we identif...

Pelvic lymph node dissection represents the gold standard of lymph node staging in patients with prostate cancer. We sought to assess the effect of extended pelvic lymph node dissection on oncologic outcomes in patients with characteristics of D'Amico intermediate or high risk prostate cancer treated with radical prostatectomy. In a multi-instituti...

Robot-Assisted NephroUreterectomy (RANU) represents a minimally invasive alternative to open NephroUreterectomy (NU) for management of Upper Tract Urothelial Carcinoma (UTUC) but its oncologic safety is still controversial. The objective of this study was to investigate the peri-operative, pathologic and oncologic outcomes of RANU for UTUC. From 20...
