Summary
This summary is machine-generated.Sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping shows promise for endometrial cancer recurrence and prognosis. Further clinical research is needed to fully understand SLN
Area Of Science
- Oncology
- Surgical Oncology
- Bibliometrics
Background
- The role of sentinel lymph nodes (SLN) in endometrial cancer management is debated.
- Existing literature requires comprehensive analysis to identify research trends and hotspots.
Purpose Of The Study
- To conduct a bibliometric analysis of research on sentinel lymph nodes in endometrial cancer.
- To identify key contributors, core journals, and emerging research frontiers in this field.
Main Methods
- Bibliometric analysis of 545 articles from the Web of Science core database (1900-present).
- Descriptive statistics and visualization using VOSviewer and R package.
- Analysis of countries, journals, institutions, authors, and keywords.
Main Results
- USA is the leading country, with Gynecologic Oncology and International Journal of Gynecological Cancer as core journals.
- Abu-Rustum Nadeem R is the most productive author.
- Current research focuses on endometrial cancer, SLN, lymphadenectomy, biopsy, and indocyanine green (ICG), with complications, guidelines, outcomes, and survival as frontiers.
Conclusions
- Sentinel lymph node mapping holds significant promise for improving recurrence and prognosis in endometrial cancer patients.
- Extensive global research highlights breakthroughs, but further clinical studies are essential to elucidate the full role of SLN.
