Abstract
We conclude that SNM in CRC is technically feasible. Standardization of SNM procedures is mandatory to resolve the debate on the reliability of sentinel node status for predicting the tumour status of all lymph nodes. Only then can adjuvant treatment of patients upstaged by OTC detection in sentinel nodes be justified.
