title: [Intraoperative diagnosis of lymphatic metastases in colon cancer].
abstract: Colon carcinoma is leading cause of death in oncology. The precise staging in colon carcinoma by finding micrometastases is extremely difficult task using routine methods. By discovering and assessing the sentinel nodes we could determine more precisely the lymph status of the patient. The basic methods for intraoperative marking of sentinel nodes are based on using of dyes and radionuclides.
