The second was to compare three surgical techniques: unassisted lymphadenectomy, intraoperative guidance by methylene blue dye alone (MB) or by a combination of \u03b3\u2010probe and MB (\u03b3\u2010MB). The third was to assess whether the number, palpability, and site of lymph nodes (LNs) influenced the incidence of complications.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Study design<\/jats:title><jats:p>Retrospective multicenter study.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Sample population<\/jats:title><jats:p>Lymphadenectomies (<jats:italic>n<\/jats:italic> =\u2009201) from 163 client\u2010owned tumor\u2010bearing dogs.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Medical records of dogs undergoing both preoperative sentinel LN (SLN) mapping and excision of peripheral SLNs between December 2020 and April 2023 were reviewed.

The overall incidence of surgical complications was 7.5%, of which 80% were mild. The most frequent complication was seroma (2.5%). None of the variables considered in the logistic regression model, including intraoperative guidance, influenced the complication rate (<jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\u2009=\u2009.255). Using the decision tree statistical model, mandibular and retropharyngeal lymphadenectomy affected the complication rate when surgery lasted more than 21.5\u2009min.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>Lymphadenectomy of peripheral LNs was associated with a low rate of mild complications, regardless of intraoperative assistance.
