Significance of Metastatic Disease in Subaortic Lymph Nodes
The Annals of Thoracic Surgery, 1987Thirty-five patients underwent resection of primary bronchogenic carcinoma of the left upper lobe or left main bronchus in the presence of metastatic disease in subaortic lymph nodes. No patient had metastatic disease in other mediastinal node stations. There was 1 postoperative death. Complete follow-up is available on 34 patients. Three-year and five-

The prognostic significance of metastatic cervical lymph nodes
The Laryngoscope, 1980AbstractThe ability to predict accurately the clinical course of a patient with a malignancy is critically important to the patient's subsequent management. It has been well documented that the presence of metastatic nodal disease is associated with decreased patient survival.

Carcinoma of the Thyroid Metastatic to Lymph Nodes of the Neck
Archives of Surgery, 1971On the basis of our experience with lymph node metastases from thyroid cancer several observations may be made. (1) Thyroid cancer is characterized by frequent local recurrence, local invasion, low mortality, and a prolonged clinical course. (2) Females with blood groups A and B are susceptible to this disease; the disease with blood type O appears to ...

Melanoma Research, 1995
The value of elective lymph node dissection (ELND) for melanoma patients with clinically uninvolved regional nodes remains controversial. However, it has been proposed that selective 'sentinel' lymph node biopsy reliably identifies individuals with micrometastases, who are most likely to benefit from full ELND. The aim of this study was to confirm that

Peritoneal Malignant Mesothelioma Metastatic to Supraclavicular Lymph Nodes
International Journal of Surgical Pathology, 2014Distinguishing between malignant mesothelioma and reactive mesothelial hyperplasia is often inestimable, but may be a challenging gauntlet for pathologists. A 62-year-old man underwent appendectomy after the identification of a peritoneal mass and the histological examination showed mesothelial proliferation along the appendix surface with no clear ...

The Lymph Node as a Bridgehead in the Metastatic Dissemination of Tumors
2000The metastatic spread of tumors is not a random process. Distinct patterns of metastasis can be discerned which vary from tumor type to tumor type. A common pattern, particularly for carcinomas, is that regional lymph nodes are often the first organs to develop metastases.
