  • Title: Successful mapping of lymphorrhea using patent blue dye after lymph node dissection for malignant melanoma.
    Author: Setoyama M, Shimada H, Kanzaki T.
    Journal: J Dermatol; 2000 Jun; 27(6):407-8. PubMed ID: 10920589.
    Abstract:
    Patent blue is a dye that has been used for intraoperative lymphatic mapping. We used this mapping method on a patient with lymphorrhea after groin dissection. We easily detected the lymphatic channel causing lymphorrhea and successfully ligated it. This technique may have great merit for treating of lymphorrhea.
