Pattern of Colon Cancer Lymph Node Metastases in Patients Undergoing Central Mesocolic Lymph Node Excision: A Systematic Review

Diseases of the Colon & Rectum, 2016
BACKGROUND: Extended mesocolic lymph node dissection in colon cancer surgery seems to improve oncological outcome. A possible reason might be related to metastases in the central mesocolic lymph nodes. OBJECTIVE: The purpose of this study was to describe

Presence and Number of Lymph Node Metastases Are Associated With Compromised Survival for Patients Younger Than Age 45 Years With Papillary Thyroid Cancer.

Journal of Clinical Oncology, 2015
PURPOSE Cervical lymph node metastases are recognized as a prognostic indicator only in patients age 45 years or older with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC); patients younger than age 45 years are perceived to have low-risk disease.

Reverse Lymphatic Mapping: A New Technique for Maximizing Safety in Vascularized Lymph Node Transfer

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, 2015
Background: The authors introduce the technique of reverse lymphatic mapping for vascularized lymph node transfer. This physiologic technique allows one to identify which lymph nodes drain the trunk as opposed to the extremity, to minimize the risk of ...
