The authors report about a new "lymphatic-mapping" method (by means of patent blue staining) by which it is able to detect regional (sentinel) lymph node, into which the first metastasis is occurred. Experiences were made known with 15 patients. The by "lymphatic mapping" detected and removed sentinel lymph node has an, important role not only in determination of staging, but also in indication of prophylactic block-dissection, too.
