Study Objective: To evaluate the added value of the fluorescence dye indocyanine green (ICG) for sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping in women with cervical cancer who had undergone previous conization (stage 1A-1B1) by comparing ICG versus Tc99mradiotracer + blue dye (BD). Design: Retrospective study (Canadian Task Force classification II-2). Setting: Two European academic medical centers, San Gerardo Hospital, Italy and University of Berne, Switzerland. Patients: Sixty-five women with early stage (IA-IB1) cervical cancer who had undergone previous conization and who underwent SLN mapping with Tc99m± BD (n = 23) or ICG (n = 42) followed by pelvic lymphadenectomy and fertility-sparing surgery or hysterectomy were included in this analysis. Intervention: Overall detection rate and bilateral SLN mapping rates of ICG were compared with those obtained using the standard Tc99mradiocolloid and BD. Measurement and Main Results: Overall, 220 SLNs were detected. The median number of SLNs per patient in the Tc99m± BD group was 2 (range, 1-5) and in the ICG group, 3 (range, 2-15). The detection rate of SLNs was 95.7% in Tc99m± BD group and 100% in the ICG group (p = .354). The women injected with ICG had a higher rate of bilateral mapping of the SLNs as compared with the Tc99m± BD group (95.2% vs 69.6%, p = .016%). Only 12% of the patients (8/65) presented metastatic nodes, 2 in the Tc99m± BD group and 6 in the ICG group. Conclusion: In early-stage cervical cancer patients conization had no significant impact on the SLN detection rate using both techniques (ICG and radiotracer ± BD). In this scenario a higher bilateral mapping rate was confirmed using the fluorescent dye ICG rather than the standard techniques
