Clinical implications of metastatic lymph node ratio in gastric cancer [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2007
Background The 5-year survival rate in patients with gastric cancer is still poor, and lymph node metastasis is considered one of the most important prognostic factors.

Prostate Cancer Metastatic to the Cervical Lymph Nodes

open access: yesCase Reports in Urology, 2015
Prostate cancer is the most common cancer in men, often presenting with regional lymph node or bone metastasis and rarely with supradiaphragmatic lymph node involvement.

Size of Metastatic Lymph Nodes [PDF]

open access: yesCase Reports in Pathology, 2013
We present a case and review of the literature of well-differentiated sigmoid adenocarcinoma with numerous metastases into pericolic lymph nodes. All positive lymph nodes were small. The authors concluded that there is no clear correlation between nodal size and the likelihood of metastasis in the lymph node, and the status of small lymph nodes must ...

The use of Raman spectroscopy for the intra-operative assessment of axillary lymph nodes in breast cancer [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Breast cancer remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. Assessment of the axillary lymph nodes is part of the staging of the disease. Advances in surgical management of breast cancer have seen a move towards intra-operative lymph node ...

Integrating features from lymph node stations for metastatic lymph node detection

open access: yesComputerized Medical Imaging and Graphics, 2022
Metastasis on lymph nodes (LNs), the most common way of spread for primary tumor cells, is a sign of increased mortality. However, metastatic LNs are time-consuming and challenging to detect even for professional radiologists due to their small sizes, high sparsity, and ambiguity in appearance.

The pre-metastatic niche in lymph nodes: formation and characteristics [PDF]

open access: yesCellular and Molecular Life Sciences, 2021
AbstractLymph node metastasis is a crucial prognostic parameter in many different types of cancers and a gateway for further dissemination to distant organs. Prior to metastatic dissemination, the primary tumor prepares for the remodeling of the draining (sentinel) lymph node by secreting soluble factors or releasing extracellular vesicles that are ...

Histology of metastatic colorectal cancer in a lymph node

open access: yesPLOS ONE, 2023
Background A primary colorectal cancer (CRC) tumor can contain heterogeneous cancer cells. As clones of cells with different properties metastasize to lymph nodes (LNs), they could show different morphologies. Cancer histologies in LNs of CRC remains to be described.

Does shear wave ultrasound independently predict axillary lymph node metastasis in women with invasive breast cancer? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Shear wave elastography (SWE) shows promise as an adjunct to greyscale ultrasound examination in assessing breast masses. In breast cancer, higher lesion stiffness on SWE has been shown to be associated with features of poor prognosis.

Metastatic lymph nodes and prognosis assessed by the number of retrieved lymph nodes in gastric cancer

open access: yesWorld Journal of Gastrointestinal Surgery, 2022
The prognostic value of quantitative assessments of the number of retrieved lymph nodes (RLNs) in gastric cancer (GC) patients needs further study.To discuss how to obtain a more accurate count of metastatic lymph nodes (MLNs) based on RLNs in different pT stages and then to evaluate patient prognosis.This study retrospectively analyzed patients who ...
