Increased lymph node yield in colorectal cancer is not necessarily associated with a greater number of lymph node positive cancers. [PDF]
The presence of lymph node metastasis is a key prognostic factor in colorectal cancer and lymph node yield is an important parameter in assessing the quality of histopathology reporting of colorectal cancer excision specimens.

The Quality of Lymph Node Harvests in Extralevator Abdominoperineal Excisions [PDF]
Abstract Background:Lymph node (LN) harvest in colorectal cancer resections is a well-recognised prognostic factor for disease staging and determining survival, particularly for node-negative (N0) diseases. Extralevator abdominoperineal excisions (ELAPE) aim to prevent “waisting” that occurs during conventional abdominoperineal resections (APR)

Lymphatic Drainage Mapping with Indirect Lymphography for Canine Mammary Tumors
Mammary gland tumors are the most common canine neoplasms. They account for 25–50% of all tumors diagnosed in bitches. Metastases and recurrences develop in about 35–70% of bitches following excision.
