Lymph Node Metastasis in Intrahepatic Cholangiocarcinoma [PDF]
Lymph node metastasis is a significant prognostic factor in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. This study was aimed at investigating lymph node metastasis in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma and to examine whether the extent of metastasis affects outcomes after surgery.From 1980 through 1996, 70 patients with intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma underwent ...

Breast Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis [PDF]
The surgical management of breast cancer has evolved over the years from extensive radical mastectomy to breast conservation surgery. Until the introduction of the sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), all patients with invasive breast cancer would undergo complete axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and thus be at risk of suffering from its associated ...

Lymph Node Metastasis in Bladder Cancer [PDF]
We reviewed the literature on nodal staging in patients with bladder cancer treated with radical cystectomy and lymphadenectomy.Fractionating the lymph node specimen significantly increases the node count, whereas results are contradictory as to whether that increase improves detection of positive nodes. Pathoanatomic data indicate that extending lymph

Lymph Node Metastasis of Gastric Cancer [PDF]
Despite a decrease in incidence in recent decades, gastric cancer is still one of the most common causes of cancer death worldwide [1]. In areas without screening for gastric cancer, it is diagnosed late and has a high frequency of nodal involvement [1]. Even in early gastric cancer (EGC), the incidence of lymph node (LN) metastasis exceeds 10%; it was

Targeting Lymph Node Sinus Macrophages to Inhibit Lymph Node Metastasis [PDF]
Lymph nodes are important peripheral immune organs in which numerous important immune responses occur. During the process of lymphatic metastasis, lymph nodes are also sites through which tumor cells must pass. Therefore, it is essential to develop a drug delivery system that can specifically transfer immunostimulatory medicine into lymph nodes to ...

Sclerosing Hemangioma with Lymph Node Metastasis [PDF]
Sclerosing hemangioma (SH) of the lung is an uncommon type of tumor, which is composed of polygonal and cuboidal cells. This disease is generally regarded as benign but extremely rare cases with lymph node metastasis have been reported. We report a case of SH with a metastasis to the regional lymph nodes.

Esophageal Cancer Initially Thought to be Accompanied by a Solitary Metastasis to an Intrathoracic Paraaortic Lymph Node [PDF]
Esophageal cancers usually exhibit lymph-node metastases. Although a solitary lymph-node metastasis is occasionally found, the involvement of an intrathoracic paraaortic node is rare.

Sclerosing Pneumocytoma with Lymph Node Metastasis [PDF]
A 33-year-old woman with a family history of multiple cancers had been undergoing surveillance scans. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed cysts in the kidney and pancreas, multiple hemangiomas in the liver, and a lesion in the left lower lobe (LLL) of the lung. Repeat positron emission tomogram/computed tomography demonstrated a 1.8 1.6-cm nodule (Fig.

RAB25 expression is epigenetically downregulated in oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma with lymph node metastasis [PDF]
Oral and oropharyngeal squamous cell carcinoma (OOSCC) have a low survival rate, mainly due to metastasis to the regional lymph nodes. For optimal treatment of these metastases, a neck dissection is required; however, inaccurate detection methods results

Biological Ablation of Sentinel Lymph Node Metastasis in Submucosally Invaded Early Gastrointestinal Cancer [PDF]
Currently, early gastrointestinal cancers are treated endoscopically, as long as there are no lymph node metastases. However, once a gastrointestinal cancer invades the submucosal layer, the lymph node metastatic rate rises to higher than 10%. Therefore,
