Lower-Limb Drainage Mapping in Pelvic Lymphadenectomy for Gynaecological Cancer (SENTIJAMBE)

January 6, 2023 updated by: Assistance Publique - Hôpitaux de Paris

Individualisation du Drainage Lymphatique Des Membres inférieurs Lors du Curage Pelvien Pour Cancer gynécologique

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of an isotopic technique to identify, and to map the lower-limb drainage nodes during pelvic lymphadenectomy for gynaecological cancers. The diagnostic value of our mapping method will be assessed, and we will determine the incidence of lymhedema.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

Pelvic lymphadenectomy is associated with a significant risk of lower-limb lymphedema. In this study, we evaluate the feasibility of identifying the lower-limb drainage nodes (LLDNs) during pelvic lymphadenectomy for gynaecological cancers using an isotopic detection technique with a preoperative radiopharmaceutical injection into both feet Secondary objectives are to map lower-limb drainage, to assess the diagnostic value of our mapping technique, and to determine the incidence of lymphedema. LLDN mapping may allow the preservation of LLDNs, thereby decreasing the risk of lower-limb lymphedema and improving quality of life.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: isotopic intraoperative detection
Lower-limb drainage isotopic intraoperative detection
A radiopharmaceutical is injected into both feet on the day before surgery. Pelvic lower-limb drainage nodes (LLDNs) are identified using preoperative SPECT-CT and intraoperative isotopic probe detection, and then electively removed before complete pelvic lymphadenectomy. LLDNs and pelvic lymphadenectomy specimens undergo separate histological analysis.
