## Abstract ## Background and Objectives Various techniques are used for the identification of the sentinel node (SLN). We prospectively compare the efficacy of SLN biopsy and the number of SLNs identified, by injecting methylene blue (MB) alone in the subareolar area (SA) or peritumorally (PT) in
## Abstract About 10β15% of patients with cervical cancer suffer from recurrence despite histologically negative lymph nodes (pN0). Occult micrometastases or small tumour cell clusters may contribute to disease outcome. The aim of this study was to compare at the RNA level 2 known tumourβassociated
