Fluorescent Versus Radioguided Lymph Node Mapping in Bladder Cancer

The aim of the study was to compare radioactive and fluorescent sentinel lymph node biopsy in bladder cancer. The study was conducted on 50 patients. We found that the sentinel lymph node biopsy technique is feasible and useful for the evaluation of lymph nodes in bladder cancer. The fluorescent technique may provide similar results to the radiocolloid method, although both have advantages and disadvantages.
