Is regional nodal basin control compromised by previous sentinel lymph node biopsy in patients with melanoma?
Nodal basin failure after lymphadenectomy in patients who underwent previous biopsy of a histologically positive SLN is primarily a function of aggressive locoregional disease rather than of contamination from previous surgery. Because regional nodal control was comparable with that in other series, we conclude that SLN biopsy with selective lymphadenectomy does not compromise regional nodal basin control.
Overwhelmingly lesbians prefer sexually tolerant obstetricians/gynecologists regardless of their gender; however, only a small number of lesbian subjects in this study considered their obstetricians/gynecologists as displaying this characteristic.
