Lymph Node Mapping Via Flourescent Dye in Colon Cancer
Sponsor: Universitätsklinikum Hamburg-Eppendorf
Summary
The aim of the study is to evaluate whether lymph nodes draining the region of the carcinoma are located only inside the lines of standard resection or in some percentages are located outside as well. The visualized nodes draining the region of the carcinoma will be correlated to location, fluorescent yes/no and nodal positive/negative. The draining lymph nodes will be visualized using the fluorescent dye indocyanine green.
