Comparative Long-term Outcomes of Laparoscopic Radical Hysterectomy with Sentinel Node Navigation and Open Surgery for Cervical Cancer
LRH with SNNS and open surgery for cervical cancer exhibited comparable long-term outcomes. Vaginal closure using a vaginal cuff without a uterine manipulator is crucial for preventing cancer spillage. Combining LRH with SNNS is less invasive and avoids compromising oncological outcomes. High-quality randomized controlled trials are required to validate these findings.
